Bayesian statistics In Bayesian statistics , a maximum a posteriori probability MAP estimate is a mode statistics mode of the posterior distribution . The MAP can be used to obtain a point estimation point estimate of an unobserved quantity on the basis of empirical data. It is closely related to Ronald Fisher Fisher s method of maximum likelihood ML , but employs an augmented optimization mathematics optimization objective which incorporates a prior distribution over the quantity one wants to estimate. MAP estimation can therefore be seen as a regularization mathematics regularization of ML estimation. Description Assume that we want to estimate an unobserved population parameter math theta math on the basis of observations math x math . Let math f math be the sampling distribution of math x math , so that math f x theta math is the probability of math x math when the underlying population parameter is math theta math . Then the function math theta mapsto f x theta math is known as the likelihood function and the estimate math hat theta mathrm ML x underset theta operatorname arg ,max f x theta math is the maximum likelihood estimate of math theta math . Now assume that a prior distribution math g math over math theta math exists. This allows us to treat math theta math as a random variable as in Bayesian statistics . Then the posterior distribution of math theta math is as follows math theta mapsto f theta x frac f x theta , g theta displaystyle int theta in Theta f x theta ... theory Category Logic and statistics de Maximum a posteriori fr Maximum a posteriori ko nl Maximum a posteriori schatter ja ru zh ... is the domain of math g math .

merge A priori languages date April 2011 This is the article about constructed languages. For other uses of the term a posteriori , see a posteriori . An a posteriori language from Latin language Latin a posteriori from the later , according to Louis Couturat , is any constructed language whose elements are borrowed or based on existing languages, as opposed to the A priori languages a priori languages . The a posteriori languages can be divided into three categories Simplified ethnic languages, like Basic English or Latino sine flexione Naturalistic languages, i.e. closest to the real ethnic languages most often Latin or Romance languages , like Occidental language or Interlingua Autonomous schematic languages, in which grammar is a priori but vocabulary is a posteriori , like Esperanto or, to some extent, Volap k . In distinguishing whether the language is a priori or a posteriori the prevalence and distribution of respectable traits is often the key.

Unreferenced date January 2009 In Marxist theory , a maximum programme consists of a series of demands which will achieve socialism . The concept of a maximum programme comes from the Erfurt Programme of the Social Democratic Party of Germany SPD , later mirrored by much of the Socialist International . The maximum is contrasted with a minimum programme of immediate social demands. In the short term, parties were to pursue only the minimum programme of achievable demands, which would improve the lives of workers until the inevitable collapse of capitalism . These groups believed that the achievement of a minimum programme would enable them to become mass party mass parties and pursue their maximum programme. The Communist International developed the alternative idea of transitional demand transitional slogans , seeing the minimum maximum division as leaving social democratic parties always campaigning only for their minimum programme and not clearly planning a route to achieve their maximum programme, though the eventual Programme was more in line with a maximum programme than with transitional slogans.
