Bayesian Computational Methods
by Christian P. Robert
Publisher: arXiv 2010
Number of pages: 59
Description:
We will first present the most standard computational challenges met in Bayesian Statistics, focusing primarily on mixture estimation and on model choice issues, and then relate these problems with computational solutions.

Rule-based Computation and Deduction
by Helene Kirchner, Pierre-Etienne Moreau - ESSLLI
This text first introduces the concept of rewriting which is behind rule-based systems. Then the rewriting logic and the rewriting calculus are defined and shown to be especially suited to describing concurrent and non-deterministic computations.

Introduction to Computing: Explorations in Language, Logic, and Machines
by David Evans - University of Virginia
An introduction to the most important ideas in computing. It focuses on how to describe information processes by defining procedures, how to analyze the costs required to carry out a procedure, and the limits of what can be computed mechanically.

Logic and Proof
by Lawrence C Paulson - University of Cambridge
These lecture notes give a brief introduction to logic, with including the resolution method of theorem-proving and its relation to the programming language Prolog. Formal logic is used for specifying and verifying computer systems.
