Density estimation via Bayesian inference engines

نویسندگان

چکیده

We explain how effective automatic probability density function estimates can be constructed using contemporary Bayesian inference engines such as those based on no-U-turn sampling and expectation propagation. Extensive simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed have excellent comparative performance scale well to very large sample sizes due a binning strategy. Moreover, approach is fully all are accompanied by point-wise credible intervals. An accompanying package in R language facilitates easy use of new estimates.

Bayesian Density Estimation and Inference Using

We describe and illustrate Bayesian inference in models for density estimation using mixtures of Dirichlet processes. These models provide natural settings for density estimation, and are exempliied by special cases where data are modelled as a sample from mixtures of normal distributions. EEcient simulation methods are used to approximate various prior, posterior and predictive distributions. ...

Bayesian Inference with Wavelets: Density Estimation

We propose a prior probability model in the wavelet coeecient space. The proposed model implements wavelet coeecient thresholding by full posterior inference in a coherent probability model. We introduce a prior probability model with mixture priors for the wavelet coeecients. The prior includes a positive prior probability mass at zero which leads to a posteriori threshold-ing and generally to...

Inference-less Density Estimation using Copula Bayesian Networks

We consider learning continuous probabilistic graphical models in the face of missing data. For non-Gaussian models, learning the parameters and structure of such models depends on our ability to perform efficient inference, and can be prohibitive even for relatively modest domains. Recently, we introduced the Copula Bayesian Network (CBN) density model a flexible framework that captures comple...

Estimation with Bayesian Inference

A probabilistic technique for the joint estimation of background and sources in high-energy astrophysics is described. Bayesian inference is applied to gain insight into the coexistence of background and sources through a probabilistic two-component mixture model, which provides consistent uncertainties of background and sources. The present analysis is applied on ROSAT PSPC data in Survey Mode...
