Bayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملPosterior Predictive Assessment of Model
This paper considers the Bayesian counterparts of the classical tests for goodness of t and their use in judging the t of a single Bayesian model to the observed data. We focus on posterior predictive assessment, in a framework that also includes conditioning on ancillary statistics. The Bayesian formulation facilitates the construction and calculation of a meaningful reference distribution not...
متن کاملPosterior predictive Bayesian phylogenetic model selection.
We present two distinctly different posterior predictive approaches to Bayesian phylogenetic model selection and illustrate these methods using examples from green algal protein-coding cpDNA sequences and flowering plant rDNA sequences. The Gelfand-Ghosh (GG) approach allows dissection of an overall measure of model fit into components due to posterior predictive variance (GGp) and goodness-of-...
متن کاملBayesian Model Assessment and Comparison Using Cross-Validation Predictive Densities
In this work, we discuss practical methods for the assessment, comparison, and selection of complex hierarchical Bayesian models. A natural way to assess the goodness of the model is to estimate its future predictive capability by estimating expected utilities. Instead of just making a point estimate, it is important to obtain the distribution of the expected utility estimate because it describ...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Logistic Regression Models using Sequential Posterior Simulation
The logistic specification has been used extensively in non-Bayesian statistics to model the dependence of discrete outcomes on the values of specified covariates. Because the likelihood function is globally weakly concave estimation by maximum likelihood is generally straightforward even in commonly arising applications with scores or hundreds of parameters. In contrast Bayesian inference has ...
