An Empirical Bayes Optimal Discovery Procedure Based on Semiparametric Hierarchical Mixture Models
Multiple testing has been widely adopted for genome-wide studies such as microarray experiments. For effective gene selection in these genome-wide studies, the optimal discovery procedure (ODP), which maximizes the number of expected true positives for each fixed number of expected false positives, was developed as a multiple testing extension of the most powerful test for a single hypothesis b...
متن کاملVariational Bayes for Hierarchical Mixture Models
In recent years, sparse classification problems have emerged in many fields of study. Finite mixture models have been developed to facilitate Bayesian inference where parameter sparsity is substantial. Classification with finite mixture models is based on the posterior expectation of latent indicator variables. These quantities are typically estimated using the expectation-maximization (EM) alg...
متن کاملSemiparametric Bayes hierarchical models with mean and variance constraints
In parametric hierarchical models, it is standard practice to place mean and variance constraints on the latent variable distributions for the sake of identifiability and interpretability. Because incorporation of such constraints is challenging in semiparametric models that allow latent variable distributions to be unknown, previous methods either constrain the median or avoid constraints. In ...
متن کاملIdentifiability of Nonparametric Mixture Models and Bayes Optimal Clustering
Motivated by problems in data clustering, we establish general conditions under which families of nonparametric mixture models are identifiable by introducing a novel framework for clustering overfitted parametric (i.e. misspecified) mixture models. These conditions generalize existing conditions in the literature, and are flexible enough to include for example mixtures of Gaussian mixtures. In...
متن کاملRebayes: an R Package for Empirical Bayes Mixture Methods
Models of unobserved heterogeneity, or frailty as it is commonly known in survival analysis, can often be formulated as semiparametric mixture models and estimated by maximum likelihood as proposed by Robbins (1950) and elaborated by Kiefer and Wolfowitz (1956). Recent developments in convex optimization, as noted by Koenker and Mizera (2014b), have led to dramatic improvements in computational...
