Where Bayes tweaks Gauss: Conditionally Gaussian priors for stable multi-dipole estimation

نویسندگان

چکیده

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We present a very simple yet powerful generalization of previously described model and algorithm for estimation multiple dipoles from magneto/electro-encephalographic data. Specifically, the consists in introduction log-uniform hyperprior on standard deviation set conditionally linear/Gaussian variables. We use numerical simulations an experimental dataset to show that approximation posterior distribution remains extremely stable under wide range values hyperparameter, virtually removing dependence hyperparameter.</p>

Adaptive estimation of multivariate functions using conditionally Gaussian tensor-product spline priors

We investigate posterior contraction rates for priors on multivariate functions that are constructed using tensor-product B-spline expansions. We prove that using a hierarchical prior with an appropriate prior distribution on the partition size and Gaussian prior weights on the Bspline coefficients, procedures can be obtained that adapt to the degree of smoothness of the unknown function up to ...

Bayesian estimation of incomplete data using conditionally specified priors

In this paper, a class of conjugate prior for estimating incomplete count data based on a broad class of conjugate prior distributions is presented. The new class of prior distributions arises from a conditional perspective, making use of the conditional specification methodology and can be considered as the generalisation of the form of prior distributions that have been used previously in the...

Conditionally Gaussian Random Sequences for Robust Integrated Variance Estimation

Conditionally Gaussian random sequences generalize State Space models along two relevant directions: (a) the parameters of the model depend in an arbitrary way from past observations, but once this dependence is realized, the randomness can be expressed in terms of Gaussian random variables, (b) correlation is introduced between the transition and measurement equations, through the presence of ...

Covariance Estimation for Multivariate Conditionally Gaussian Dynamic Linear Models

In multivariate time series, the estimation of the covariance matrix of the observation innovations plays an important role in forecasting as it enables the computation of the standardized forecast error vectors as well as it enables the computation of confidence bounds of the forecasts. We develop an on-line, non-iterative Bayesian algorithm for estimation and forecasting. It is empirically fo...

Bayes Theorem for Improper Priors

Improper priors are used frequently, but often formally and without reference to a sound theoretical basis. A consequence is the occurrence of seemingly paradoxical results. The most famous example is perhaps given by the marginalization paradoxes presented by Stone and Dawid (1972). It is demonstrated here that the seemingly paradoxical results are removed by a more careful formulation of the ...
