Implementing Approximate Bayesian Inference using Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation: a manual for the inla program
نویسنده
چکیده
This manual describes the inla program, a new instrument which allows the user to easily perform approximate Bayesian inference using integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA). We describe the set of models which can be solved by the inla program and provide a series of worked out examples illustrating its usage in details. Appendix A contains a reference manual for the inla program. This manual is for version snapshot of the inla program.

متن کاملFunctional Brain Response to Emotional Muical Stimuli in Depression, Using INLA Approach for Approximate Bayesian Inference
Introduction: One of the vital skills which has an impact on emotional health and well-being is the regulation of emotions. In recent years, the neural basis of this process has been considered widely. One of the powerful tools for eliciting and regulating emotion is music. The Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC) is part of the emotional neural circuitry involved in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)....
متن کاملFast approximate inference with INLA: the past, the present and the future
Latent Gaussian models are an extremely popular, flexible class of models. Bayesian inference for these models is, however, tricky and time consuming. Recently, Rue, Martino and Chopin introduced the Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) method for deterministic fast approximate inference. In this talk we will outline the INLA approximation and its related R package. We will focus on u...
متن کاملFitting dynamic models using integrated nested Laplace approximations - INLA
In this paper we propose a computational framework to perform approximate Bayesian inference in linear and generalized linear dynamic models based on the Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) approach, which overcomes some limitations of computational tools presently available in the dynamic modeling literature. We show how to formulate specific latent models in a state-space form, eve...
متن کاملIntegrated Nested Laplace Approximation for Bayesian Nonparametric Phylodynamics
The goal of phylodynamics, an area on the intersection of phylogenetics and population genetics, is to reconstruct population size dynamics from genetic data. Recently, a series of nonparametric Bayesian methods have been proposed for such demographic reconstructions. These methods rely on prior specifications based on Gaussian processes and proceed by approximating the posterior distribution o...
