**Definition:** Beta-binomial data are defined as a set of counts $y = \left\lbrace y_1, \ldots, y_N \right\rbrace$ with $y_i \in \mathbb{N}, \; i = 1,\ldots,N$, independent and identically distributed according to a [beta-binomial distribution](/D/betabin) with number of trials $n$ as well as shapes $\alpha$ and $\beta$:
25+
26+
$$ \label{eq:betabin-data}
27+
y_i \sim \mathrm{BetBin}(n,\alpha,\beta), \quad i = 1, \ldots, N \; .
28+
$$

**Definition:** Let $p$ be a [random variable](/D/rvar) following a [beta distribution](/D/beta)
31+
32+
$$ \label{eq:beta}
33+
p \sim \mathrm{Bet}(\alpha, \beta)
34+
$$
35+
36+
and let $X$ be a [random variable](/D/rvar) following a [binomial distribution](/D/bin) conditional on $p$
37+
38+
$$ \label{eq:bin}
39+
X \mid p \sim \mathrm{Bin}(n, p) \; .
40+
$$
41+
42+
Then, the [marginal distribution](/D/dist-marg) of $X$ is called a beta-binomial distribution
43+
44+
$$ \label{eq:betabin}
45+
X \sim \mathrm{BetBin}(n, \alpha, \beta)
46+
$$
47+
48+
with [number of trials](/D/bin) $n$ and [shape parameters](/D/beta) $\alpha$ and $\beta$.

**Definition:** Let $f$ be a family of $M$ [generative models](/D/gm) $m_1, \ldots, m_M$, such that the following statement holds true:
32+
33+
$$ \label{eq:fam}
34+
f \Leftrightarrow m_1 \vee \ldots \vee m_M \; .
35+
$$
36+
37+
Then, the family evidence (FE) of $f$ is defined as the [marginal probability](/D/prob-marg) relative to the [model evidences](/D/me) $p(y \vert m_i), conditional only on $f$:
38+
39+
$$ \label{eq:fe}
40+
\mathrm{FE}(f) = p(y|f) \; .
41+
$$

**Definition:** Let $m$ be a [generative model](/D/gm) with [likelihood function](/D/lf) $p(y \vert \theta, m)$ and [prior distribution](/D/prior) $p(\theta \vert m)$. Then, the model evidence (ME) of $m$ is defined as the [marginal likelihood](/D/ml) of this model:
32+
33+
$$ \label{eq:ME}
34+
\mathrm{ME}(m) = p(y|m) \; .
