A Bayesian Hierarchical Model for Multiple Comparisons in Mixed Models

Bayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models

In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...

Analysis of Hierarchical Bayesian Models for Large Space Time Data of the Housing Prices in Tehran

Housing price data is correlated to their location in different neighborhoods and their correlation is type of spatial (location). The price of housing is varius in different months, so they also have a time correlation. Spatio-temporal models are used to analyze this type of the data. An important purpose of reviewing this type of the data is to fit a suitable model for the spatial-temporal an...

Bayesian hierarchical linear mixed models for additive smoothing splines

Bayesian hierarchical models have been used for smoothing splines, thin-plate splines, and L-splines. In analyzing high dimensional data sets, additive models and backfitting methods are often used. A full Bayesian analysis for such models may include a large number of random effects, many of which are not intuitive, so researchers typically use noninformative improper or nearly improper priors...

Discovering Latent Patterns with Hierarchical Bayesian Mixed-Membership Models

There has been an explosive growth of data-mining models involving latent structure for clustering and classification. While having related objectives these models use different parameterizations and often very different specifications and constraints. Model choice is thus a major methodological issue and a crucial practical one for applications. In this paper, we work from a general formulatio...
