About Church

Church was developed in 2008 as a probabilistic programming language to simplify the creation and manipulation of probabilistic models. It emerged from the work of researchers at MIT, aiming to combine the expressive power of programming languages with statistical modeling techniques to advance machine learning and artificial intelligence research.

Church's strengths included its expressive power for defining complex probabilistic models and its ability to perform efficient inference. Weaknesses involved its steep learning curve and potential inefficiencies in handling very large datasets. Competitors included other probabilistic programming languages such as Stan, PyMC3, and Edward.

How to hire a Church expert

A Church expert must have strong skills in probabilistic modeling, statistical inference, and functional programming. Proficiency in Lisp or Scheme is essential due to Church's syntactic roots. Familiarity with machine learning concepts and algorithmic implementation of probabilistic models is also crucial.
