Bayesian statistics

a Bayes factor that uses a small fraction of the likelihood to turn improper or vague priors into proper ones, so models can be compared without subjective priors.

In Bayesian statistics, fractional Bayes factor refers to a Bayes factor that uses a small fraction of the likelihood to turn improper or vague priors into proper ones, so models can be compared without subjective priors. This meaning comes from O'Hagan (1995) in Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology.[1]
