Inflation Behavior in Top Sukuk Issuing Countries: Using a Bayesian Log-linear Model
This paper focused on developing a model to study the effect of sukuk issuance on the inflation rate in top sukuk issuing Islamic economies at 2014. For this purpose, as the available sample size is small, a Bayesian approach to regression model is used which contains key supply and demand side factors in addition to the outstanding sukuk volume as potential determinants of inflation rate...
متن کاملBayesian Input Variable Selection Using Posterior Probabilities and Expected Utilities
We consider the input variable selection in complex Bayesian hierarchical models. Our goal is to find a model with the smallest number of input variables having statistically or practically at least the same expected utility as the full model with all the available inputs. A good estimate for the expected utility can be computed using cross-validation predictive densities. In the case of input ...
متن کاملAdaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo for Bayesian Variable Selection
We describe adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for sampling posterior distributions arising from Bayesian variable selection problems. Point mass mixture priors are commonly used in Bayesian variable selection problems in regression. However, for generalized linear and nonlinear models where the conditional densities cannot be obtained directly, the resulting mixture posterior may...
متن کاملBayesian Grouped Variable Selection
Traditionally, variable selection in the context of linear regression has been approached using optimization based approaches like the classical Lasso. Such methods provide a sparse point estimate with respect to regression coefficients but are unable to provide more information regarding the distribution of regression coefficients like expectation, variance estimates etc. In the recent years, ...
متن کاملBayesian Computation and the Linear Model
This paper is a review of computational strategies for Bayesian shrinkage and variable selection in the linear model. Our focus is less on traditional MCMC methods, which are covered in depth by earlier review papers. Instead, we focus more on recent innovations in stochastic search and adaptive MCMC, along with some comparatively new research on shrinkage priors. One of our conclusions is that...
متن کاملScalable variational inference for Bayesian variable selection in regression, and its accuracy in genetic association studies
The Bayesian approach to variable selection in regression is a powerful tool for tackling many scientific problems. Inference for variable selection models is usually implemented using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Because MCMC can impose a high computational cost in studies with a large number of variables, we assess an alternative to MCMC based on a simple variational approximation. Our ai...
