Researchers have developed a generalized framework for Bayesian principles in machine learning, extending the Fenchel-Young inequality. This new approach allows for computationally simpler posterior updates and defines generalized posteriors at equality. The framework also introduces a novel concept of conjugacy that supports additive canonical updating, parameter-dependent supports, and tuneably heavy tails, capabilities not present in standard conjugate Bayes.
