The roles of inductive modelling and coherence in Bayesian statistics.

Tom Leonard (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

The role of the inductive modelling process (IMP) seems to be of practical importance in Bayesian statistics; it is recommended that the statistician should emphasize meaningful real-life considerations rather than more formal aspects such as the axioms of coherence. It is argued that whilst axiomatics provide some motivation for the Bayesian philosophy, the real strength of Bayesianism lies in its practical advantages and its plausible representation of real-life processes. A number...

Misclassified multinomial data: a Bayesian approach.

Carlos Javier Pérez, F. Javier Girón, Jacinto Martín, Manuel Ruiz, Carlos Rojano (2007)

RACSAM

Similarity:

In this paper, the problem of inference with misclassified multinomial data is addressed. Over the last years there has been a significant upsurge of interest in the development of Bayesian methods to make inferences with misclassified data. The wide range of applications for several sampling schemes and the importance of including initial information make Bayesian analysis an essential tool to be used in this context. A review of the existing literature followed by a methodological...

Bayesian inference in applied statistics.

Arthur P. Dempster (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

The task of assessing posterior distributions from noisy empirical data imposes difficult requirements of modelling, computing and assessing sensitivity to model choice. Seasonal analysis of economic time series is used to illustrate ways of approaching such difficulties.

On the frequentist and Bayesian approaches to hypothesis testing.

Elías Moreno, F. Javier Girón (2006)

SORT

Similarity:

Hypothesis testing is a model selection problem for which the solution proposed by the two main statistical streams of thought, frequentists and Bayesians, substantially differ. One may think that this fact might be due to the prior chosen in the Bayesian analysis and that a convenient prior selection may reconcile both approaches. However, the Bayesian robustness viewpoint has shown that, in general, this is not so and hence a profound disagreement between both approaches exists. In...
