Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the importance of risk management in decision-making, highlighting how Bayesian theorem can transform uncertainty into manageable risk by updating probabilities based on new evidence [2][8][21]. Group 1: Understanding Bayesian Theorem - Bayesian theorem is a mathematical tool that helps in updating the probability of an event based on new evidence, allowing for better decision-making under uncertainty [5][6][10]. - The theorem consists of four components: prior probability, likelihood, marginal probability, and posterior probability, which together help in refining predictions [6][7].
