On a famous problem of induction.

José M. Bernardo (1985)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

A Bayesian solution is provided to the problem of testing whether an entire finite population shows a certain characteristic, given that all the elements of a random sample are observed to have it. This is obtained as a direct application of existing theory and, it is argued, improves upon Jeffrey's solution.

Unimodal contaminations in testing point null hypothesis.

Miguel Angel Gómez-Villegas, Luís Sanz (2003)

RACSAM

Similarity:

The problem of testing a point null hypothesis from the Bayesian perspective is considered. The uncertainties are modelled through use of ε?contamination class with the class of contaminations including: i) All unimodal distributions and ii) All unimodal and symmetric distributions. Over these classes, the infimum of the posterior probability of the point null hypothesis is computed and compared with the p?value and a better approach than the one known is obtained.

Some history of the hierarchical Bayesian methodology.

Irving John Good (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

A standard tecnique in subjective Bayesian methodology is for a subject (you) to make judgements of the probabilities that a physical probability lies in various intervals. In the Bayesian hierarchical technique you make probability judgements (of a higher type, order, level or stage) concerning the judgements of lower type. The paper will outline some of the history of this hierarchical technique with emphasis on the contributions by I. J. Good because I have read every word written...
