Posterior Consistency of Species Sampling Priors
Recently there has been increasing interest in species sampling priors, the nonparametric priors defined as the directing random probability measures of the species sampling sequences. In this paper, we show that not all of the species sampling priors produce consistent posteriors. In particular, in the class of Pitman-Yor process priors, the only priors rendering posterior consistency are esse...
متن کاملOptimal Bayesian posterior concentration rates with empirical priors
In high-dimensional Bayesian applications, choosing a prior such that the corresponding posterior distribution has optimal asymptotic concentration properties can be restrictive in the sense that the priors supported by theory may not be computationally convenient, and vice versa. This paper develops a general strategy for constructing empirical or data-dependent priors whose corresponding post...
متن کاملExpected Posterior Priors in Factor Analysis
Bayesian inference in factor analytic models has received renewed attention in recent years, partly due to computational advances but also partly to applied focuses generating factor structures as exemplified by recent work in financial time series modeling. The focus of our current work is to investigate the commonly overlooked problem of prior specification and sensitivity in factor models. W...

15 صفحه اولSequential Monte Carlo methods for mixtures with normalized random measures with independent increments priors
Normalized random measures with independent increments are a general, tractable class of nonparametric prior. This paper describes sequential Monte Carlo methods for both conjugate and non-conjugate nonparametric mixture models with these priors. A simulation study is used to compare the efficiency of the different algorithms for density estimation. The methods are further illustrated by applic...
