Bayesian learning mechanisms are probabilistic causal models[1] used in computer science to research the fundamental underpinnings of machine learning, and in cognitive neuroscience, to model conceptual development.[2][3]

Bayesian learning mechanisms have also been used in economics[4] and cognitive psychology to study social learning in theoretical models of herd behavior.[5][6]
