A Bayesian Model for Pooling Gene Expression Studies That Incorporates Co-Regulation Information
Current Bayesian microarray models that pool multiple studies assume gene expression is independent of other genes. However, in prokaryotic organisms, genes are arranged in units that are co-regulated (called operons). Here, we introduce a new Bayesian model for pooling gene expression studies that incorporates operon information into the model. Our Bayesian model borrows information from other...
متن کاملA Bayesian model of lightness perception that incorporates spatial variation in the illumination.
The lightness of a test stimulus depends in a complex manner on the context in which it is viewed. To predict lightness, it is necessary to leverage measurements of a feasible number of contextual configurations into predictions for a wider range of configurations. Here we pursue this goal, using the idea that lightness results from the visual system's attempt to provide stable information abou...
متن کاملBayesian Inference Under Partial Prior Information
Partial prior information on the marginal distribution of an observable random variable is considered. When this information is incorporated into the statistical analysis of an assumed parametric model, the posterior inference is typically non-robust so that no inferential conclusion is obtained. To overcome this difficulty a method based on the standard default prior associated to the model an...
متن کاملPrior Information Based Bayesian Infinite Mixture Model
Unsupervised learning methods have been tremendously successful in extracting knowledge from genomics data generated by high throughput experimental assays. However, analysis of each dataset in isolation without incorporating potentially informative prior knowledge is limiting the utility of such procedures. Here we present a novel probabilistic model and computational algorithm for semi-superv...
متن کاملDynamic Bayesian Information Measures
This paper introduces measures of information for Bayesian analysis when the support of data distribution is truncated progressively. The focus is on the lifetime distributions where the support is truncated at the current age t>=0. Notions of uncertainty and information are presented and operationalized by Shannon entropy, Kullback-Leibler information, and mutual information. Dynamic updatings...
