Bayesian Inference for Probabilistic Risk Assessment provides a Bayesian foundation for framing probabilistic problems and performing inference on these problems.
Dana Kelly and Curtis Smith are both specialists in Bayesian inference for risk and reliability analysis, working at the Idaho National Laboratory, USA. They provide support to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, NASA, the Joint Research Centre in Pettern, and others. They are the authors of numerous refereed publications in the field.
