Approximate methods in Bayesian point process spatial models
A range of point process models which are commonly used in spatial epidemiology applications for the increased incidence of disease are compared. The models considered vary from approximate methods to an exact method. The approximate methods include the Poisson process model and methods that are based on discretization of the study window. The exact method includes a marked point process model,...
متن کاملApproximate Bayesian Inference in Spatial Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In this paper we propose fast approximate methods for computing posterior marginals in spatial generalized linear mixed models. We consider the common geostatistical special case with a high dimensional latent spatial variable and observations at only a few known registration sites. Our methods of inference are deterministic, using no random sampling. We present two methods of approximate infer...
متن کاملApproximate Bayesian inference for large spatial datasets using predictive process models
This article addresses the challenges of estimating hierarchical spatial models to large datasets. With the increasing availability of geocoded scientific data, hierarchical models involving spatial processes have become a popular method for carrying out spatial inference.
متن کاملSparse Approximate Inference for Spatio-Temporal Point Process Models
Spatio-temporal point process models play a central role in the analysis of spatially distributed systems in several disciplines. Yet, scalable inference remains computationally challenging both due to the high resolution modelling generally required and the analytically intractable likelihood function. Here, we exploit the sparsity structure typical of (spatially) discretised log-Gaussian Cox ...
متن کاملcomparison of conventional bayesian and approximate bayesian approaches in estimation of variance components using animal models
animal models are used to model the observations of animal performance that are genetically dependent.these models are considered as generalized linear mixed models and the genetic correlation structure of data is considered through random effects of breeding values. one goal of the mentioned models is to estimate variance components. in this research, an approximate bayesian approach presented...
