متن کاملBayesian Inference in the Sample Selection and Two-Part Models
This paper considers two models to deal with an outcome variable that contains a large fraction of zeros: the sample-selection model and the two-part model. Whereas the sample selection model allows correlation between the selection and outcome mechanisms, the two-part model assumes conditional independence. Using a fully parametric Bayesian approach, we present Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) ...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Hospital Quality in a Selection Model: Appendices
A1.1 Prior distributions for (selection model) There are five coefficients in the vector in the hospital multinomial choice model (2) corresponding to the five covariates: distance from patient i’s home to hospital j, the square of this distance, and the product of distance with age, disease stage, and income respectively. The priors for the five coefficients are independent, each Gaussian with...
متن کاملA Disease Outbreak Prediction Model Using Bayesian Inference: A Case of Influenza
Introduction: One major problem in analyzing epidemic data is the lack of data and high dependency among the available data, which is due to the fact that the epidemic process is not directly observable. Methods: One method for epidemic data analysis to estimate the desired epidemic parameters, such as disease transmission rate and recovery rate, is data ...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for D-vines: Estimation and Model Selection
During the last two decades the advent of fast computers has made Bayesian inference based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods very popular in many fields of science. These Bayesian methods are good alternatives to traditional maximum likelihood (ML) methods since they often can estimate complicated statistical models for which a ML approach fails. In this paper we review available MCMC ...
