Approximate Bayesian inversions in probabilistic quasi-Borel spaces
Approximate Bayesian inversions in probabilistic quasi-Borel spaces
Let be the category of quasi-Borel spaces, and let denote the probabilistic construction. For objects and , a morphism represents a probabilistic map from to . Consider an inference functor whose action on objects is the identity and whose action on morphisms is similar to above. Approximate Bayesian inversions in probabilistic quasi-Borel spaces. Such a functor should be a dagger endofunctor
sending objects to themselves and morphisms to approximate Bayesian inversions
This would extend the paper's inference construction beyond faithful inverses for string diagrams and provide an approximation to Bayesian inversion in the sense of Cho and Jacobs. Whether the category of quasi-Borel spaces has the conditionals needed to support such a dagger functor is not yet known.
