Since the Bayesian method involves high dimensional probability distributions this requires the calculation of impossible integrals or sums involving too many terms. This video explains how and why the need for these calculations arises.

This video is part of a lecture course which closely follows the material covered in the book, "A Student's Guide to Bayesian Statistics", published by Sage, which is available to order on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Students-Gui...
