Bayesian Weighted Least Squares (Bayesian WLS)
Bayesian Weighted Least Squares combines the classical WLS weighting scheme — which downweights observations with high error variance — with Bayesian prior distributions over the regression coefficients and error variance. The result is a posterior distribution that reflects both the data likelihood and prior beliefs, providing full uncertainty quantification in heteroscedastic settings.
