    Hypothesis testing is an important aspect of both statistics and machine learning. The paper compares Bayesian and classical hypothesis testing. It discusses the construction of a hypothesis test by an a priori assessment of the distribution of the test statistic under the alternative hypothesis, which allows the computation of Bayes factors.
