The Importance of Marginal Probability in Machine Learning
The marginal likelihood just is the evidence for a modeling, just is the probability of some data in the present context. So that's why it's called an elbow or an evidence lower bound simply because it now becomes a computable object you can evaluate given some data. And once the statistician has that marginal likelihood she can repeat the process for another model and save a null hypothesis with no treatment effect. These are the fundamental of machine learning, data simulations, system identification. This just is evidence-based scientific progress.
