Approximate Bayesian Computation for Smoothing
We consider a method for approximate inference in hidden Markov models (HMMs). The method circumvents the need to evaluate conditional densities of observations given the hidden states. It may be considered an instance of Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) and it involves the introduction of auxiliary variables valued in the same space as the observations. The quality of the approximation m...
متن کاملAn adaptive sequential Monte Carlo method for approximate Bayesian computation
Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is a popular approach to address inference problems where the likelihood function is intractable, or expensive to calculate. To improve over Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) implementations of ABC, the use of sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods has recently been suggested. Effective SMC algorithms that are currently available for ABC have a computational c...
متن کاملApproximate Bayesian Computation
Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water, I’m going to complicate things even further. The Nielsen-Wakely-Hey [5, 3, 4] approach is very flexible and very powerful, but even it doesn’t cover all possible scenarios. It allows for non-equilibrium scenarios in which the populations from which we sampled diverged from one another at different times, but suppose that we think our ...
متن کاملAdaptive approximate Bayesian computation
Sequential techniques can enhance the efficiency of the approximate Bayesian computation algorithm, as in Sisson et al.’s (2007) partial rejection control version. While this method is based upon the theoretical works of Del Moral et al. (2006), the application to approximate Bayesian computation results in a bias in the approximation to the posterior. An alternative version based on genuine im...
متن کاملApproximate Bayesian Computation
Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) constitutes a class of computational methods rooted in Bayesian statistics. In all model-based statistical inference, the likelihood function is of central importance, since it expresses the probability of the observed data under a particular statistical model, and thus quantifies the support data lend to particular values of parameters and to choices amon...
