Bayesian learning mechanisms

Bayesian learning mechanisms are probabilistic causal models^[1] used in computer science to research the fundamental underpinnings of machine learning, and in cognitive neuroscience, to model conceptual development.^[2]^[3]

Bayesian learning mechanisms have also been used in economics^[4] and cognitive psychology to study social learning in theoretical models of herd behavior.^[5]^[6]
