On Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian multivariate regression models with heavy-tailed errors
We consider Bayesian analysis of data from multivariate linear regression models whose errors have a distribution that is a scale mixture of normals. Such models are used to analyze data on financial returns, which are notoriously heavy-tailed. Let π denote the intractable posterior density that results when this regression model is combined with the standard non-informative prior on the unknow...
متن کاملMonte Carlo error estimation for multivariate Markov chains
In this paper, the conservative Monte Carlo error estimation methods and theory developed in Geyer (1992a) are extended from univariate to multivariate Markov chain applications. A small simulation study demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed estimators.
متن کاملConvergence rates and asymptotic standard errors for Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms for Bayesian probit regression
Consider a probit regression problem in which Y1, . . . ,Yn are independent Bernoulli random variables such that Pr.Yi D1/DΦ.xT i β/ where xi is a p-dimensional vector of known covariates that are associated with Yi ,β is a p-dimensional vector of unknown regression coefficients and Φ. / denotes the standard normal distribution function. We study Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms for explorin...
متن کاملNon-linear Markov Chain Monte Carlo
In this paper we introduce a class of non-linear Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for simulating from a probability measure π. Non-linear Markov kernels (e.g. Del Moral (2004)) can be constructed to admit π as an invariant distribution and have typically superior mixing properties to ordinary (linear) MCMC kernels. However, such non-linear kernels often cannot be simulated exactly, so, i...
متن کاملNon-Stationary Gaussian Process Regression with Hamiltonian Monte Carlo
We present a novel approach for non-stationary Gaussian process regression (GPR), where the three key parameters – noise variance, signal variance and lengthscale – can be simultaneously input-dependent. We develop gradient-based inference methods to learn the unknown function and the non-stationary model parameters, without requiring any model approximations. For inferring the full posterior d...
