An Empirical Bayes Approach to Statistics
Let X be a random variable which for simplicity we shall assume to have discrete values x and which has a probability distribution depending in a known way on an unknown real parameter A, (1) p (xIX) =Pr [X = xIA =X], A-itself being a random variable with a priori distribution function (2) G (X) =Pr [A-< X. The unconditional probability distribution of X is then given by (3) PG(x) =Pr[X=xI =fP(...
متن کاملAn Empirical Bayes Approach to Optimizing Machine Learning Algorithms
I Most models and the algorithms for fitting them have hyperparameters η . e.g., number of layers in a neural network, gradient descent learning rate parameters, number of topics in a topic model, prior variance. I Existing methods for choosing them include expert knowledge, grid search, random sampling, or Bayesian optimization (BayesOpt) [Snoek et al. 2012]. I BayesOpt is an automated way of ...
متن کاملAn Empirical Bayes Approach to Due Date Assignment
We consider a model in which there are m products and for each i=1,...,m, there are ni observations of the service times associated with the th i product. Assuming the service times associated with the th i product follow an exponential distribution with parameter i θ , and i θ 's are independent random variables with a common gamma distribution, with unknown parameters α and β , we provide two...

15 صفحه اولFrom Empirical Bayes to Full Bayes: Methods for Analyzing Traffic Safety Data
Traffic safety engineers are among the early adopters of Bayesian statistical tools for analyzing crash data. As in many other areas of application, empirical Bayes methods were their first choice, perhaps because they represent an intuitively appealing, yet relatively easy to implement alternative to purely classical approaches. With the enormous progress in numerical methods made in recent ye...
