This data alone does not make any sense unless it’s identified to be related in some pattern. Data mining is the process of discovering these patterns among the data and is therefore also known as Knowledge Discovery from Data (KDD). Machine learning provides the technical basis for data mining.

Empirical Bayes methods find a prior such that when we add Poisson noise, we fit the distribution of our observed data. For an introduction to Empirical Bayes, see the paper [3] by Brad Efron (with more in his book [4]). In Figure 2, the red line shows a Gamma prior that leads to a good fit. How exactly should we model $G$?
