List of things named after Thomas Bayes

Thomas Bayes (/beɪz/; c. 1701 – 1761) was an English statistician, philosopher, and Presbyterian minister.

Bayesian (/ˈbeɪˌʒən/ or /ˈbeɪˌzɪən/) refers either to a range of concepts and approaches that relate to statistical methods based on Bayes' theorem, or a follower of these methods. ^[1]
