    A Bayesian approach to multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) estimation is considered. It is shown that the Bayesian estimation is equivalent to maximum penalized likelihood estimation. Akaike's Bayes information criterion is used for the selection of the number and combination of basis functions. Applications to real data examples are also considered.
