Binomial-Beta Hierarchical Models for Ecological Inference
insights from the literature on hierarchical models based on Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms and King’s ecological inference model. The new approach reveals some features of the data that King’s approach does not, can be easily generalized to more complicated problems such as general R × C tables, allows the data analyst to adjust for covariates, and provides a formal evaluation of the sign...
متن کاملBayesian hierarchical models in ecological studies
The aim of this article is to set out a generic methodological framework for combining aggregated and individual level data for ecological inference and to illustrate some of the benefits and difficulties by simulations and on a case
متن کاملHierarchical Bayesian Models for Predicting The Spread of Ecological Processes
There is increasing interest in predicting ecological processes. Methods to accomplish such predictions must account for uncertainties in observation, sampling, models, and parameters. Statistical methods for spatio-temporal processes are powerful, yet difficult to implement in complicated, high-dimensional settings. However, recent advances in hierarchical formulations for such processes can b...
متن کاملEmpirical models of spiking in neural populations
Neurons in the neocortex code and compute as part of a locally interconnected population. Large-scale multi-electrode recording makes it possible to access these population processes empirically by fitting statistical models to unaveraged data. What statistical structure best describes the concurrent spiking of cells within a local network? We argue that in the cortex, where firing exhibits ext...
متن کاملLarge Scale Hierarchical Neural Network Language Models
Feed-forward neural network language models (NNLMs) are known to improve both perplexity and word error rate performance for speech recognition compared with conventional ngram language models. We present experimental results showing how much the WER can be improved by increasing the scale of the NNLM, in terms of model size and training data. However, training time can become very long. We imp...
