| beastlabs.core.Likelihood |
BEASTObject that performs calculations based on the State.
Probabilistic representation that can produce a log probability for instance for running an MCMC chain.
Takes a collection of distributions, typically a number of likelihoods and priors and combines them into the compound of these distributions typically interpreted as the posterior.
Logable: yes, this can be used in a log.
