'''Church''' refers to both a family of [[LISP]]-like programming language for specifying arbitrarily [[probabilistic]] [[programs]], as well as set of [[algorithms]] for performing probabilistic [[inference]] in the [[generative model]]s those programs define.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://projects.csail.mit.edu/church/wiki/Church | title=MIT Church wiki | publisher=csail.mit.edu}}</ref>. Church was originally developed at [[MIT]], primarily in the computational cognitive science group, run by [[Joshua Tenenbaum]]. Several different inference algorithms and concrete languages are in existence, including [[Bher]], [[MIT-Church]], [[Cosh]], and [[Venture]].
