Reference priors for exponential families with increasing dimension
In this article, we establish the asymptotic normality of the posterior distribution for the natural parameter in an exponential family based on independent and identically distributed data. The mode of convergence is expected Kullback-Leibler distance and the number of parameters p is increasing with the sample size n. Using this, we give an asymptotic expansion of the Shannon mutual informati...
متن کاملPosterior Normality and Reference Priors for Exponential Families with Increasing Dimension
In this article, we study asymptotic normality of the posterior distribution of the natural parameter in an exponential family based on independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) data, that is, in terms of expected Kullback-Leibler divergence, when the number of parameters p is increasing with the sample size n. We use this to generate an asymptotic expansion of the Shannon mutual informa...
متن کاملConjugate Priors for Exponential Families Having Cubic Variance Functions
In this paper, we give three equivalent properties of the class of multivariate simple cubic natural exponential families (NEF’s). The first property says that the cumulant function of any basis of the family is a solution of some Monge-Ampère equation, the second is that the variance function satisfies a differential equation, and the third is characterized by the equality between two families...
متن کاملSatisfiability with Exponential Families
Fix a set S ⊆ {0, 1}∗ of exponential size, e.g. |S ∩ {0, 1}n| ∈ Ω(αn), α > 1. The S-SAT problem asks whether a propositional formula F over variables v1, . . . , vn has a satisfying assignment (v1, . . . , vn) ∈ {0, 1}n ∩S. Our interest is in determining the complexity of S-SAT. We prove that S-SAT is NP-complete for all context-free sets S. Furthermore, we show that if S-SAT is in P for some e...
متن کاملPosterior Inference in Curved Exponential Families under Increasing Dimensions
This work studies the large sample properties of the posterior-based inference in the curved exponential family under increasing dimension. The curved structure arises from the imposition of various restrictions on the model, such as moment restrictions, and plays a fundamental role in econometrics and others branches of data analysis. We establish conditions under which the posterior distribut...
