Ringkasan	Bayesian Multidimensional Scaling places objects in a low-dimensional latent space so that inter-object distances reproduce observed dissimilarities, while a full Bayesian treatment quantifies uncertainty in the coordinates, handles missing proximities naturally, and selects the number of dimensions via model comparison rather than heuristic inspection.	Bayesian latent class analysis extends classical LCA by placing prior distributions on all model parameters and using posterior inference — typically via MCMC — to classify individuals into unobserved categorical groups, quantify uncertainty around class membership, and select the number of classes in a principled, probabilistic way.
