| Abstract | A non-informative prior function is discussed from the standpoint of a weakly informative prior density, though it has been pursued in relation only to the sampling densities. We note that a weakly informative prior density is useful for examining a no-informative prior function. Some disadvantages of a non-informative prior function are pointed out. On the other hand, a noninformative prior function is compared favorably with a degenerated prior density on an unknown point. The role of the posterior density compared with the marginal likelihood is discussed. |
