A learning procedure takes as input a dataset and performs inference for the parameters θ of a model that is assumed to have given rise to the dataset. Here we consider learning procedures whose output is a probability distribution, representing uncertainty about θ after seeing the dataset. Bayesian inference is a prime example of such a procedure but one can also construct other learning procedures that return distributional output. This paper studies conditions for a learning procedure to be… CONTINUE READING
