A Simple Solution to Bayesian Mixture Labeling
The label switching problem is one of the fundamental problems in Bayesian mixture analysis. Using all the Markov chain Monte Carlo samples as the initials for the EM algorithm, we propose to label the samples based on the modes they converge to. Our method is based on the assumption that the samples converged to the same mode have the same labels. If a relative noninformative prior is used or ...
متن کاملA two-component Bayesian mixture model to identify implausible gestational age
Background: Birth weight and gestational age are two important variables in obstetric research. The primary measure of gestational age is based on a mother’s recall of her last menstrual period. This recall may cause random or systematic errors. Therefore, the objective of this study is to utilize Bayesian mixture model in order to identify implausible gestational age. Methods: ...
متن کاملMixture Approximations to Bayesian Networks
Structure and parameters in a Bayesian network uniquely specify the probability distribution of the modeled domain. The locality of both structure and probabilistic information are the great benefits of Bayesian networks and require the modeler to only specify local information. On the other hand this locality of information might prevent the modeler —and even more any other person— from obtain...
متن کاملA simple approach to polymer mixture miscibility
Polymeric mixtures are important materials, but the control and understanding of mixing behaviour poses problems. The original Flory-Huggins theoretical approach, using a lattice model to compute the statistical thermodynamics, provides the basic understanding of the thermodynamic processes involved but is deficient in describing most real systems, and has little or no predictive capability. We...
متن کاملA simple approach to Bayesian network computations
The general problem of computing poste rior probabilities in Bayesian networks is NP hard Cooper However e cient algorithms are often possible for particular applications by exploiting problem struc tures It is well understood that the key to the materialization of such a possibil ity is to make use of conditional indepen dence and work with factorizations of joint probabilities rather than joi...
