On the number of outliers in data from a linear model.

Peter R. Freeman (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

This paper reviews models for the occurrence of outliers in data from the linear model. The Bayesian analyses are all closely similar in form, but differ in the way they treat suspected outliers. The models are compared on Darwin's data and one of them is used on data from a 25 factorial experiment. The question on how many outliers are present involves comparison of models with different number of parameters. A solution using proper priors on all parameters...

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...

A Bayesian Spatial Mixture Model for FMRI Analysis

Geliazkova, Maya (2010)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

We develop, implement and study a new Bayesian spatial mixture model (BSMM). The proposed BSMM allows for spatial structure in the binary activation indicators through a latent thresholded Gaussian Markov random field. We develop a Gibbs (MCMC) sampler to perform posterior inference on the model parameters, which then allows us to assess the posterior probabilities of activation for each voxel. One purpose of this article is to compare the HJ model and the BSMM in terms of receiver operating characteristics...

An evaluation of the efficiency of plant protection products via nonlinear statistical methods – a simulation study

Ewa Skotarczak, Ewa Bakinowska, Kamila Tomaszyk (2014)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

A nonlinear statistical approach was used to evaluate the efficiency of plant protection products. The methodology presented can be implemented when the observations in an experiment are recorded as success or failure. This occurs, for example, when following the application of a herbicide or pesticide, a single weed or insect is classified as alive (failure) or dead (success). Then a higher probability of success means a higher efficiency of the tested product. Using simulated data...

Bayesian analysis of structural change in a distributed Lag Model (Koyck Scheme)

Arvin Paul B. Sumobay, Arnulfo P. Supe (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Structural change for the Koyck Distributed Lag Model is analyzed through the Bayesian approach. The posterior distribution of the break point is derived with the use of the normal-gamma prior density and the break point, ν, is estimated by the value that attains the Highest Posterior Probability (HPP). Simulation study is done using R. Given the parameter values ϕ = 0.2 and λ = 0.3, the full detection of the structural change when σ² = 1 is generally attained at...

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.
