Minimax Analysis, axioms. We are left in the uncomfortable position of asking why this chapter is of any interest. (Indeed many Bayesians will deny that it is of any interest.) It thus behooves us to start with a discussion of when minimax analysis can be useful.

Invariance,l inference. Many of the key ideas in these approaches will, however, be brought out in the discussion of invariance and its relationship to the use of noninformative priors. The basic idea of invariance is best conveyed through an example.

We will, for the most part, assume that these uncertainties can be considered to be unknown numerical quantities, and will represent them by . (possibly a vector or matr

In order to provide a satisfactory perspective on Bayesian analysis, we will discuss Bayesian inference along with Bayesian decision theory. Before beginning the study, however, we briefly discuss the seven major
