Bayesian Matrix Factorization with Non-Random Missing Data using Informative Gaussian Process Priors and Soft Evidences
We propose an extended Bayesian matrix factorization method, which can incorporate multiple sources of side information, combine multiple a priori estimates for the missing data and integrates a flexible missing not at random submodel. The model is formalized as probabilistic graphical model and a corresponding Gibbs sampling scheme is derived to perform unrestricted inference. We discuss the a...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation of Two-Component Mixture of Gumbel Type II Distribution under Informative Priors
In this paper, the Bayesian estimation of the parameters of mixture of two components of Gumbel type II distribution has been considered. A heterogeneous population has been modeled by means of two components mixture of the Gumbel type II distribution under type I censored data. The Bayes estimators of the said parameters have been derived under the assumption of informative priors using differ...
متن کاملBayesian estimation of incomplete data using conditionally specified priors
In this paper, a class of conjugate prior for estimating incomplete count data based on a broad class of conjugate prior distributions is presented. The new class of prior distributions arises from a conditional perspective, making use of the conditional specification methodology and can be considered as the generalisation of the form of prior distributions that have been used previously in the...
متن کاملBayesian generalized linear mixed modeling of Tuberculosis using informative priors
TB is rated as one of the world's deadliest diseases and South Africa ranks 9th out of the 22 countries with hardest hit of TB. Although many pieces of research have been carried out on this subject, this paper steps further by inculcating past knowledge into the model, using Bayesian approach with informative prior. Bayesian statistics approach is getting popular in data analyses. But, most ap...
متن کاملExploiting Informative Priors for Bayesian Classification and Regression Trees
A general method for defining informative priors on statistical models is presented and applied specifically to the space of classification and regression trees. A Bayesian approach to learning such models from data is taken, with the MetropolisHastings algorithm being used to approximately sample from the posterior. By only using proposal distributions closely tied to the prior, acceptance pro...
