Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Outlines the philosophical and statistical background to an approach thought to provide a logical and coherent framework within which to make inferences on the basis of both data and a priori expert knowledge. Adoption of a Bayesian framework is considered timely in the light of recent developments in numerical methods which have solved many previous implementation problems. Many questions of archaeological interest, which require the use of complex statistical models, are being investigated using this methodology. A variety of recently published examples from a range of archaeological areas are used here to illustrate the type of questions that can be answered and the nature of the methodologies used. Comparisons are made with the results obtained using more traditional statistical techniques. | |
