Abstract

This chapter introduces the Bayesian and the evidence frameworks to construct an automatic relevance determination method. These techniques are described in detail, relevant literature reviews were conducted and their use is justified. The automatic relevance determination technique was then applied to determine the relevance of interstate variables that are essential for modeling interstate conflict. Conclusions are drawn and explained within the context of political science.
