Embedding Bayesian Tools in Mathematical Software
نویسندگان
چکیده
The BACC software provides its users with tools for Bayesian Analysis, Computation and Communications. These tools are embedded in mathematical software applications such as Matlab and Gauss. From the user’s perspective, there is a seamless integration of special-purpose BACC commands with the powerful built-in commands of the application. Several models are currently available, and BACC is designed to be extendible. We give a brief demonstration of the use of BACC for Matlab, and discuss the implementation of new models for BACC.

The common set of capabilities required by the typical simulation software are discussed, and the shortcomings of the curr...
متن کاملBayesian Statistics for Biological Data: Pedigree Analysis
I n teaching biology, there may be a tendency to concentrate too much on the descriptive aspects of the subject. A well-rounded education in the biological sciences also requires experience in the gathering and statistical analysis (interpretation) of quantitative data from field or laboratory studies. There are numerous mathematical tools and computer programs to help us do this today. Introdu...
متن کاملEmbedding normed linear spaces into $C(X)$
It is well known that every (real or complex) normed linear space $L$ is isometrically embeddable into $C(X)$ for some compact Hausdorff space $X$. Here $X$ is the closed unit ball of $L^*$ (the set of all continuous scalar-valued linear mappings on $L$) endowed with the weak$^*$ topology, which is compact by the Banach--Alaoglu theorem. We prove that the compact Hausdorff space $X$ can ...

Learning disability (LD) is common problem in present world. Teachers and parents seek the newest instructional methods always. In this research, LD students in particular dyscalculia students are considered at elementary level. Assistive technology (AT) as assistive tools are designed and constructed to help LD students. One of tools of AT is software. The aim of this study is to introduce...
متن کاملAdding New Mathematical Functions and Statistical Distributions in WinBUGS
WinBUGS is one of the usual softwares in computational Bayesian statistics, which is used to fit Baysian models easily. Although this software has usual mathematical functions and statistical distributions as built in functions, sometimes it is necessary to include other functions and distributions in computations which is done by some tricks and indirectly. By using WinBUGS developmen...
