| # Computing Backwards and Probabilistic Programing Languajes | |
| ######################################################################## | |
| A probabilistic program is like computing backwards. Given certain data, we create a program with randomness in it and we get all posible ways those random events could have cause the data we observed. In a way, a probabilistic programing languaje allow us to "create a program" given certain amount of data. A probabilistic programming language includes randomness as first-class citizens. | |
| Are you ready for the next big jump on programing paradigs? On this talk we'll explore in deep what is a probabilistic languaje, what are some of their current implementation, how we can leverage using Ruby as well as some concepts as what is humand thought, what is to think probabilitically, inference and true tables. | |
