Empirical Bayes Estimates for Large-Scale Prediction Problems.
Classical prediction methods such as Fisher's linear discriminant function were designed for small-scale problems, where the number of predictors N is much smaller than the number of observations n. Modern scientific devices often reverse this situation. A microarray analysis, for example, might include n = 100 subjects measured on N = 10,000 genes, each of which is a potential predictor. This ...
متن کاملA nonparametric empirical Bayes framework for large-scale multiple testing.
We propose a flexible and identifiable version of the 2-groups model, motivated by hierarchical Bayes considerations, that features an empirical null and a semiparametric mixture model for the nonnull cases. We use a computationally efficient predictive recursion (PR) marginal likelihood procedure to estimate the model parameters, even the nonparametric mixing distribution. This leads to a nonp...
متن کاملBayes and empirical Bayes changepoint problems
We generalize the approach of Liu and Lawrence (1999) for multiple changepoint problems where the number of changepoints is unknown. The approach is based on dynamic programming recursion for efficient calculation of the marginal probability of the data with the hidden parameters integrated out. For the estimation of the hyperparameters, we propose to use Monte Carlo EM when training data are a...
متن کاملLarge Scale Bayes
The concept of averaging over classiiers is fundamental to the Bayesian analysis of learning. Based on this viewpoint, it has recently been demonstrated for linear classiiers that the centre of mass of version space (the set of all classiiers consistent with the training set) | also known as the Bayes point | exhibits excellent generalisation abilities. However, the billiard algorithm as presen...
