Examples

Some examples of Bayesian inference

• Origins of life/cancer/language and characterization of their respective evolutionary processes
• Modelling high-throughput genomics data (single-cell sequencing, CRISPR-CAS9, ultra-deep, expression)
• Black-hole imaging
• “Classical” tasks: classification, regression, clustering, etc
• A/B testing and Bayesian optimization
• Determining fate of the universe from cosmic microwave background
