Uncertainty and Bayesian Inference Video

We are proud to introduce our first SISEngineer.com (now FunctionalSafetyEngineer.com) original video. This video gives a brief non-technical introduction to how Bayesian inference can help meet IEC 61511 requirements for considering uncertainty and field performance in your SIS designs.

Uncertainty and Basic Bayesian Inference for SIS

We hope to provide more videos throughout this year, including deeper dives into Bayesian methods.
