Robust Bayesian General Linear Models.
We describe a Bayesian learning algorithm for Robust General Linear Models (RGLMs). The noise is modeled as a Mixture of Gaussians rather than the usual single Gaussian. This allows different data points to be associated with different noise levels and effectively provides a robust estimation of regression coefficients. A variational inference framework is used to prevent overfitting and provid...
متن کاملA General MCMC Method for Bayesian Inference in Logic-Based Probabilistic Modeling
We propose a general MCMC method for Bayesian inference in logic-based probabilistic modeling. It covers a broad class of generative models including Bayesian networks and PCFGs. The idea is to generalize an MCMC method for PCFGs to the one for a Turing-complete probabilistic modeling language PRISM in the context of statistical abduction where parse trees are replaced with explanations. We des...
متن کاملA Bayesian Method for Robust Tolerance Control and Parameter Design
This paper proposes a Bayesian method to set tolerance or specification limits on one or more responses and obtain optimal values for a set of controllable factors. The existence of such controllable factors (or parameters) that can be manipulated by the process engineer and that affect the responses is assumed. The dependence between the controllable factors and the responses is assumed to be ...
متن کاملREVCOM: a robust Bayesian method for evolutionary rate estimation
MOTIVATION Evolutionary conservation estimated from a multiple sequence alignment is a powerful indicator of the functional significance of a residue and helps to predict active sites, ligand binding sites, and protein interaction interfaces. Many algorithms that calculate conservation work well, provided an accurate and balanced alignment is used. However, such a strong dependence on the align...
متن کاملA Bayesian Method for Robust Estimation of Distributional Similarities
Existing word similarity measures are not robust to data sparseness since they rely only on the point estimation of words’ context profiles obtained from a limited amount of data. This paper proposes a Bayesian method for robust distributional word similarities. The method uses a distribution of context profiles obtained by Bayesian estimation and takes the expectation of a base similarity meas...
