Reasoning with data: an introduction to traditional and Bayesian statistics using RBook reviewsNonfictionBayesian analysisProgramming languagesStatisticsGougeon, D JChoice
Bayesian statistics uses an approach whereby beliefs are updated based on data that has been collected. This can be an iterative process, whereby apriorbelief is replaced by aposteriorbelief based on additional data, after which the posterior belief becomes a new prior belief to be refined based ...
Prior elicitation can also involve implementing databased priors. Then, the hyperparameters for the prior are derived from the sample data using methods such as maximum likelihood30,31,32,33or sample statistics34,35,36. These procedures lead to double-dipping, as the same sample data set is u...
Using Bayes’ rule, we will compute the posterior probability distribution for the proportion, based on our prior belief and evidence from the data. All of our inferences about the proportion are made by computing appropriate statistics of the posterior distribution. The Bayesian approach seeks to ...

One might think that using p(D|m) to select models would always favor the model with the most parameters. This is true if we usep(D|θm^)to select models, whereθ^mis the MLE or MAP estimate of the parameters for model m, because models with more parameters will fit the data better...
Bayesian statistics 1Bayesian model selection(贝叶斯模型选择) 使用多项式阶数过高会导致过拟合。过低会导致欠拟合。 正则化參数过小会导致过拟合,过大会导致欠拟合。我们面临一系列不同复杂度的模型,怎样选择,就是模型选择问题。 一个方法是使用交叉验证(cross-validation)来预计全部备选模型的错误。挑选最好的一个...

在贝叶斯 TAR 中,阈值 r 是一个随机变量,其分布是根据先前的和观察到的数据估计的。 贝叶斯 TAR 规范 在演示如何在 Stata 中指定贝叶斯 TAR 模型之前,让我们首先使用 bayesmh 命令为 rgdp 拟合一个更简单的贝叶斯 AR(1) 模型。它将作为与结构断裂模型进行比较的基线。 考虑到 rgdp 的范围,我们相当缺乏信息...
