Alicia Johnson presents Bayes Rules!
Bayesian statistics can be really intimidating! Alicia and her co-authors set out to demystify Bayesian statistics. On October 18th, 2021, we hosted Alicia for an interactive workshop on Bayesian statistics in R where we learned about the difference between Bayesian and Frequentist statistics and how to work with Bayesian statistics in R with the bayesrules
R package.
The Rmd and Slides from the event are available here: https://github.com/ajohns24/r-ladies-philly
The book can be found for free at: https://www.bayesrulesbook.com
We are looking forward to seeing you virtually this evening for a Bayesian meetup with Alicia Johnson! Bayes Rules! An Introduction to Bayesian Modeling with R https://t.co/H7yYNp9PVd
