What form does <strong>Bayes</strong>’ theorem assume<br />

when dealing with distributions<br />

Note:<br />

Σ j pr(H j )pr(D|H j ) = Sum of all probabilities of the data given all the<br />

hypotheses. It is very difficult to know all probabilities of data given all the<br />

hypotheses.<br />

Nevertheless, since this expression is the same denominator for each<br />

pr(H i ǀD):<br />

pr(H i ǀD)∝pr(H i )pr(DǀH i )<br />

and Σ j pr(H j )pr(DǀH j ) becomes a normalization constant to make the sum of<br />

all numerators = 1
