    Sammanfattning : Neural networks are powerful tools for modelling complex non-linear mappings, but they often suffer from overfitting and provide no measures of uncertainty in their predictions. Bayesian techniques are proposed as a remedy to these problems, as these both regularize and provide an inherent measure of uncertainty from their posterior predictive distributions. LÄS MER
