Representing Bayesian games without a common prior
Game-theoretic analyses of multi-agent systems typically assume that all agents have full knowledge of everyone’s possible moves, information sets and utilities for each outcome. Bayesian games relax this assumption by allowing agents to have different “types,” representing different beliefs about the game being played, and to have uncertainty over other agents’ types. However, applications of ...
متن کاملBayesian Inference Under Partial Prior Information
Partial prior information on the marginal distribution of an observable random variable is considered. When this information is incorporated into the statistical analysis of an assumed parametric model, the posterior inference is typically non-robust so that no inferential conclusion is obtained. To overcome this difficulty a method based on the standard default prior associated to the model an...
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric Predictive Inference and Bootstrap Techniques
Abst rac t . We address the question as to whether a prior distribution on the space of distribution functions exists which generates the posterior produced by Efron's and Rubin's bootstrap techniques, emphasizing the connections with the Dirichlet process. We also introduce a new resampling plan which has two advantages: prior opinions are taken into account and the predictive distribution of ...
متن کاملBayesian inference, predictive coding and delusions
This paper considers psychotic symptoms in terms of false inferences or beliefs. It is based on the notion that the brain is an organ of inference that actively constructs hypotheses to explain or predict its sensations. This perspective provides a normative (Bayes optimal) account of action and perception that emphasises probabilistic representations; in particular, the confidence or precision...
