Bayesian conjugate models in Python

Installation

pip install conjugate-models

Features

Supported Models

Many likelihoods are supported including

  • Bernoulli / Binomial
  • Categorical / Multinomial
  • Poisson
  • Normal (including linear regression)
  • and many more

Basic Usage

  1. Define prior distribution from distributions module
  2. Pass data and prior into model from models modules
  3. Analytics with posterior and posterior predictive distributions
from conjugate.distributions import Beta, BetaBinomial
from conjugate.models import binomial_beta, binomial_beta_posterior_predictive

# Observed Data
X = 4
N = 10

# Analytics
prior = Beta(1, 1)
prior_predictive: BetaBinomial = binomial_beta_posterior_predictive(n=N, beta=prior)

posterior: Beta = binomial_beta(n=N, x=X, beta_prior=prior)
posterior_predictive: BetaBinomial = binomial_beta_posterior_predictive(n=N, beta=posterior) 

From here, do any analysis you'd like!

# Figure
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig, axes = plt.subplots(ncols=2)

ax = axes[0]
ax = posterior.plot_pdf(ax=ax, label="posterior")
prior.plot_pdf(ax=ax, label="prior")
ax.axvline(x=X/N, color="black", ymax=0.05, label="MLE")
ax.set_title("Success Rate")
ax.legend()

ax = axes[1]
posterior_predictive.plot_pmf(ax=ax, label="posterior predictive")
prior_predictive.plot_pmf(ax=ax, label="prior predictive")
ax.axvline(x=X, color="black", ymax=0.05, label="Sample")
ax.set_title("Number of Successes")
ax.legend()
plt.show()
