Bayesian Factor Analysis is a statistical modeling framework within the class of latent variable models that uses Bayesian inference to estimate latent factors and their loadings by incorporating prior distributions over model parameters, thereby distinguishing itself from classical factor analysis through its probabilistic treatment of uncertainty and parameter estimation.
