Bayesian Analysis with Python - Second Edition

One more example

Once again, we have chemical shift data. This data comes from a set of protein molecules I have personally prepared. To be precise, we should say the chemical shifts are from the nuclei of proteins as this is an observable we measure only for certain types of atomic nuclei. Proteins are made from sequences of 20 building blocks known as amino acidic residues. Each amino acid can appear in the sequence zero or more times, and sequences can vary from a few amino acids to hundreds or even thousands of them. Each amino acid has one and only one , so we can confidently associate each chemical shift to a particular amino acidic ...
