Analysis of Hierarchical Bayesian Models for Large Space Time Data of the Housing Prices in Tehran

Housing price data is correlated to their location in different neighborhoods and their correlation is type of spatial (location). The price of housing is varius in different months, so they also have a time correlation. Spatio-temporal models are used to analyze this type of the data. An important purpose of reviewing this type of the data is to fit a suitable model for the spatial-temporal an...

Randomized Algorithms for Fast Bayesian Hierarchical Clustering

We present two new algorithms for fast Bayesian Hierarchical Clustering on large data sets. Bayesian Hierarchical Clustering (BHC) [1] is a method for agglomerative hierarchical clustering based on evaluating marginal likelihoods of a probabilistic model. BHC has several advantages over traditional distancebased agglomerative clustering algorithms. It defines a probabilistic model of the data a...

Bayesian Network Structure Inference with an Hierarchical Bayesian Model

Bayesian Networks (BNs) are applied to a wide range of applications. In the past few years great interest is dedicated to the problem of inferring the structure of BNs solely from the data. In this work we explore a probabilistic method which enables the inclusion of extra knowledge in the inference of BNs. We briefly present the theory of BNs and introduce our probabilistic model. We also pres...
