Sammanfattning	Bayesian logistic regression is a classification model that applies Bayesian inference to a logistic (sigmoid) likelihood for binary or multinomial outcomes. Developed within the weakly-informative prior framework formalised by Gelman, Jakulin, Pittau and Su (2008), it places a prior distribution over the coefficients and combines that prior with the data likelihood to yield a full posterior distribution for each parameter — delivering calibrated class probabilities and honest uncertainty even in small samples, rare-event settings, or cases of complete separation where frequentist maximum likelihood estimation collapses.	Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a family of computational algorithms for sampling from complex probability distributions, most commonly the posterior distributions that arise in Bayesian inference. Rather than computing posteriors analytically — which is rarely possible for realistic models — MCMC constructs a Markov chain whose stationary distribution is the target posterior and draws dependent samples from it, enabling full probabilistic inference for virtually any model.
