Bayesian Residual Analysis for Binary Response Regression Models
In a binary response regression model, classical residuals are diicult to deene and interpret due to the discrete nature of the response variable. In contrast, Bayesian residuals have continuous-valued posterior distributions which can be graphed to learn about outlying observations. Two deenitions of Bayesian residuals are proposed for binary regression data. Plots of the posterior distributio...
متن کاملBayesian Semiparametric Regression for Median Residual Life
With survival data there is often interest not only in the survival time distribution but also in the residual survival time distribution. In fact, regression models to explain residual survival time might be desired. Building upon recent work of Kottas and Gelfand (2001) we formulate a semiparametric median residual life regression model induced by a semiparametric accelerated failure time reg...
متن کاملBayesian nonparametric regression with varying residual density.
We consider the problem of robust Bayesian inference on the mean regression function allowing the residual density to change flexibly with predictors. The proposed class of models is based on a Gaussian process prior for the mean regression function and mixtures of Gaussians for the collection of residual densities indexed by predictors. Initially considering the homoscedastic case, we propose ...
متن کاملPrivacy Preserving Regression Residual Analysis
Regression analysis is one of the most basic statistical tools for generating predictive models that describe the relationship between variables. Once a model has been generated, numerous goodness-of-fit measures are used to evaluate the degree to which the model characterizes the relationship between the variables under consideration. The analysis of regression residuals is one such measure, w...
متن کاملBayesian nonparametric modeling for mean residual life regression
The mean residual life function is a key functional for a survival distribution. It has a practically useful interpretation as the expected remaining lifetime given survival up to a particular time point, and it also characterizes the survival distribution. However, it has received limited attention in terms of inference methods under a probabilistic modeling framework. We seek to provide gener...
