Frequentist vs. Bayesian Statistics with Tensorflow

Probabilistic deep learning

Introduction

This article belongs to the series “Probabilistic Deep Learning”. This weekly series covers probabilistic approaches to deep learning. The main goal is to extend deep learning models to quantify uncertainty, i.e. know what they do not know.

The frequentist approach to statistics is based on the idea of repeated sampling and long-run relative frequency. It involves constructing hypotheses about a population and testing them…
