This paper provides an introduction to Bayesian statistics as methodological tool for intelligent data analysis, knowledge discovery, and machine learning. The paper starts from the basic concepts of Bayesian statistics and reaches the presentation of most recent developments of the field, such as Bayesian Belief Networks. Knowledge of basic statistical concepts is required. 1. Knowledge Media Institute, The Open University. 2. Department of  Statistics, The Open University.

New Media Systems is...


Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.

Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.

Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
