Bayesian Data Analysis - Python/PyMC

This repository contains Python/PyMC code designed as an introduction for those familiar with introductory statistical concepts, likely from a null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) perspective. The code began life as a python implementation of models/figures from the book Doing Bayesian Data Analysis: A Tutorial with R, JAGS, and Stan, Second Edition, by John Kruschke (2015), but has meandered a bit since then. Given the age of that book and the ever-advancing development of PyMC (and Bayesian modeling more generally), attempting to faithfully reproduce the book's models has seemed less and less useful. It is hoped that any discrepancies between the models found here and those originally specified in the book represent progress.

The datasets used in this repository have been retrieved from the book's website. Note that, this repository is not a standalone tutorial and will be far more helpful with guidance (e.g., Kruschke's book). Questions, suggestions for improvement, and/or help with further development of the notebooks are always welcome!

Note:

The repository below contains python code for the first edition of the book. The code in that repository is a much more direct implementation of the R/JAGS code from the book than you will find here.
