JHEP 02 (2015) 133 DOI: 10.1007/JHEP02(2015)133 e-print: arXiv: 1409.5036 [hep-ph] We consider two approaches to estimate and characterise the theoretical uncertainties stemming from the missing higher orders in perturbative calculations in Quantum Chromodynamics: the traditional one based on renormalisation and factorisation scale variation, and the Bayesian framework proposed by Cacciari and Houdeau.
