A logarithm is the power to which a number must be raised in order to get some other number (see Section 3 of this Math Review for more about exponents). For example, the base ten logarithm of 100 is 2, because ten raised to the power of two is 100: log 100 = 2. because.

Prior probability represents what is originally believed before new evidence is introduced, and posterior probability takes this new information into account. A posterior probability can subsequently become a prior for a new updated posterior probability as new information arises and is incorporated into the analysis.

A parametric model is one where we assume the 'shape' of the data, and therefore only have to estimate the coefficients of the model. A non-parametric model is one where we do not assume the 'shape' of the data, and we have to estimate the most suitable form of the model, along with the coefficients.

A Neural Network has got non linear activation layers which is what gives the Neural Network a non linear element. The function for relating the input and the output is decided by the neural network and the amount of training it gets. Similarly, a complex enough neural network can learn any function.

In the case of a conditional probability, P(D|H), the hypothesis is fixed and the data are free to vary. Likelihood, however, is the opposite. For conditional probability, the hypothesis is treated as a given and the data are free to vary. For likelihood, the data are a given and the hypotheses vary.
