Bayes in Science and Everyday Life - Crash Course Statistics

The video introduces Bayesian inference, explaining its use in updating beliefs based on evidence. It covers both discrete and continuous variables, using examples like coin bias testing and business applications. The video also highlights Bayesian methods in scientific research, such as studying dissociative identity disorder, and discusses the broader applications of Bayesian inference in various fields.
