Bayesian Residual Analysis for Binary Response Regression Models

نویسنده

  • Jim Albert
چکیده

In a binary response regression model, classical residuals are diicult to deene and interpret due to the discrete nature of the response variable. In contrast, Bayesian residuals have continuous-valued posterior distributions which can be graphed to learn about outlying observations. Two deenitions of Bayesian residuals are proposed for binary regression data. Plots of the posterior distributions of the basic (observed-tted) residual can be helpful in outlier detection. Alternatively, the notion of a tolerance random variable can be used to deene latent data residuals that are a function of the tolerance random variables and the parameters. In the probit setting, these residuals are attractive in that apriori they are a sample from a standard normal distribution, and therefore the corresponding posterior distributions are easy to interpret. These residual deenitions are illustrated in examples and contrasted with classical outlier detection methods for binary data.

The Analysis of Bayesian Probit Regression of Binary and Polychotomous Response Data

The goal of this study is to introduce a statistical method regarding the analysis of specific latent data for regression analysis of the discrete data and to build a relation between a probit regression model (related to the discrete response) and normal linear regression model (related to the latent data of continuous response). This method provides precise inferences on binary and multinomia...

The Family of Scale-Mixture of Skew-Normal Distributions and Its Application in Bayesian Nonlinear Regression Models

In previous studies on fitting non-linear regression models with the symmetric structure the normality is usually assumed in the analysis of data. This choice may be inappropriate when the distribution of residual terms is asymmetric. Recently, the family of scale-mixture of skew-normal distributions is the main concern of many researchers. This family includes several skewed and heavy-tailed d...
