Uniformly Most Powerful Bayesian Tests.
Uniformly most powerful tests are statistical hypothesis tests that provide the greatest power against a fixed null hypothesis among all tests of a given size. In this article, the notion of uniformly most powerful tests is extended to the Bayesian setting by defining uniformly most powerful Bayesian tests to be tests that maximize the probability that the Bayes factor, in favor of the alternat...
متن کاملA uniformly most powerful test for statistical model-based voice activity detection
This paper presents a new voice activity detection (VAD) method using the Gaussian distribution and a uniformly most powerful (UMP) test. The UMP test is employed to derive the new decision rule based on likelihood ratio test (LRT). This method requires the Rayleigh distribution for the magnitude of the noisy spectral component and the adaptive threshold estimated from the noise statistics. Exp...
متن کاملModel-Powered Conditional Independence Test
We consider the problem of non-parametric Conditional Independence testing (CI testing) for continuous random variables. Given i.i.d samples from the joint distribution f(x, y, z) of continuous random vectors X,Y and Z, we determine whether X ⊥ Y |Z. We approach this by converting the conditional independence test into a classification problem. This allows us to harness very powerful classifier...
متن کاملA Scalable Conditional Independence Test for Nonlinear, Non-Gaussian Data
Many relations of scientific interest are nonlinear, and even in linear systems distributions are often non-‐Gaussian, for example in fMRI BOLD data. A class of search procedures for causal relations in high dimensional data relies on sample derived conditional independence decisions. The most common applications rely on Gaussian tests that can be systematically erroneous in nonlinear non-‐Ga...
