From Beta Distribution to Conjugate Distribution
Pre-requisites:
- Knowing the Bayes theorem;
- It is recommended that readers have gone through elementary training about statistics.
This article tells you the basic ideas behind the Beta distribution, and its basic applications. In detail, we could use Beta distribution to model random varibales which represent proportions or probabilities.
In this article, you could understand why Beta distribution is called “distribution of distributions”, and get an intuition about the concept “conjugate distribution”.
