Quantum Optics
Bayesian methods are statistical approaches that apply Bayes' theorem to update the probability of a hypothesis as more evidence or information becomes available. These methods allow for the incorporation of prior knowledge and beliefs into the analysis, making them particularly useful in contexts where data is limited or uncertain. In the realm of quantum state tomography, Bayesian methods help refine estimates of quantum states by leveraging both prior distributions and measurement outcomes.
congrats on reading the definition of Bayesian methods. now let's actually learn it.
