PyMC

PyMC is a Python library for probabilistic programming and Bayesian statistical modeling, enabling developers to define complex statistical models and perform inference using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and variational inference methods. It provides a high-level, intuitive interface for specifying models and automatically handles the computational details of sampling and optimization.

Also known as: PyMC3, PyMC 3, pymc3, PyMC library, Bayesian PyMC
🧊Why learn PyMC?

Developers should learn PyMC when working on projects involving uncertainty quantification, Bayesian data analysis, or probabilistic machine learning, such as in scientific research, finance, or healthcare. It is particularly useful for building hierarchical models, performing A/B testing, or implementing Bayesian neural networks, as it simplifies the implementation of complex probabilistic models compared to manual coding.
