A Bayesian Model Selection Analysis of Wmap3
We present a Bayesian model selection analysis of WMAP3 data using our code CosmoNest. We focus on the density perturbation spectral index nS and the tensor-to-scalar ratio r, which define the plane of slow-roll inflationary models. We find that while the Bayesian evidence supports the conclusion that nS 6= 1, the data are not yet powerful enough to do so at a strong or decisive level. If tenso...
متن کاملBayesian Model Selection
Traditionally, Bayes factors, posterior odds and posterior model probabilities are used in Bayesian model selection. This approach has, however, the problem that the conclusions are often too sensitive to prior specifications. Another approach is to use discrepancy measures in model comparison and posterior predictive checks in the assesment of model adequecy. These approaches are briefly summa...
متن کاملRobust Bayesian Model Selection
This paper extends the robust Bayesian inference in misspeci ed models of Müller (2013, Econometrica) to Bayesian model selection of a set of misspeci ed models. It is shown that when a model is misspeci ed, under the Kullback-Leibler loss function, the risk associated with Müllers posterior is less (weakly) than that with the original posterior distribution asymptotically. Based on this new r...
متن کاملBayesian Analysis of the Ordered Probit Model with Endogenous Selection∗
This paper presents a Bayesian analysis of an ordered probit model with endogenous selection. The model can be applied when analyzing ordered outcomes that depend on endogenous covariates that are discrete choice indicators modeled by a multinomial probit model. The model is illustrated by analyzing the effects of different types of medical insurance plans on the level of hospital utilization, ...
متن کاملPost hoc Bayesian model selection
This note describes a Bayesian model selection or optimization procedure for post hoc inferences about reduced versions of a full model. The scheme provides the evidence (marginal likelihood) for any reduced model as a function of the posterior density over the parameters of the full model. It rests upon specifying models through priors on their parameters, under the assumption that the likelih...
