  ...ssible parameter values. To find this so-called '''[[Posterior probability|posterior probability distribution]]''' requires combining the '''likelihood''' and t ...ed from the results of previous experiments. For instance, one can use the posterior of one analysis as the prior in a new, independent analysis.
