Statistical Rethinking with Python and PyMC3

Gitter Launch in Azure

Statistical Rethinking is an incredible good introductory book to Bayesian Statistics, its follows a Jaynesian and practical approach with very good examples and clear explanations.

In this repository we are porting the examples in the book to PyMC3. We are trying to keep the examples as close as possible to those in the book, while at the same time trying to express them in the most Pythonic and PyMC3onic way we can.

Ported chapters

  • Chapter 1, this chapter does not include code!
  • Chapter 2-12, fully ported :-)
  • Chapter 13, partially ported :-|
  • Chapter 14, needs to be ported :-(
