A Bayes linear Bayes method for estimation of correlated event rates.
Typically, full Bayesian estimation of correlated event rates can be computationally challenging since estimators are intractable. When estimation of event rates represents one activity within a larger modeling process, there is an incentive to develop more efficient inference than provided by a full Bayesian model. We develop a new subjective inference method for correlated event rates based o...
متن کاملBAYES ESTIMATION USING A LINEX LOSS FUNCTION
This paper considers estimation of normal mean ? when the variance is unknown, using the LINEX loss function. The unique Bayes estimate of ? is obtained when the precision parameter has an Inverse Gaussian prior density
متن کاملLinear Bayes Estimation of a Cumulative Hazard
We propose a linear Bayes estimator of the cumulative hazard of a survival distribution, based on iid survival times, possibly right censored and left truncated. The resulting estimator is recognized as an exact Bayes estimator under more restrictive model assumptions and verified to have the minimax property.
متن کاملBayes, E-Bayes and Robust Bayes Premium Estimation and Prediction under the Squared Log Error Loss Function
In risk analysis based on Bayesian framework, premium calculation requires specification of a prior distribution for the risk parameter in the heterogeneous portfolio. When the prior knowledge is vague, the E-Bayesian and robust Bayesian analysis can be used to handle the uncertainty in specifying the prior distribution by considering a class of priors instead of a single prior. In th...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains
Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical Bayes estimators for the transition probability matrix of a finite nonstationary Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...
