Specialty Definition: BAYES'POSTULATE

DomainDefinition

Mathematics

A postulate concerning the prior probabilities of a set of hypotheses(cf. Bayes'theorem)to the general effect that in the absence of information to the contrary all prior probabilities are to be assumed equal. The postulate(or something equivalent)is necessary if Bayes'theorem is to be applied in situations where there is no information concerning the prior probabilities. The postulate is the critical point in a theory of inference based on inverse probability and is usually acceptable only to those for whom probability is not a limiting frequency.
