I’m sure this question is anathema to many of you. Is there a way to obtain maximum likelihood estimates, or even just the likelihood given some parameter values, of a model in PyMC3? For context, I have an idea about how to model some data which works as a Bayesian hierarchical model in PyMC3. Ho…

Maximum likelihood estimation of a Bayesian model

Do you have any idea if there is a way to extract the likelihood/logpt function from a model? I don’t mean the values, rather the equations from Theano (presumably).
