چکیده

n) rate up to some logarithmic factor, showing the exact parametric rate of convergence of the posterior distribution requires additional work and assumptions. Additionally, we demonstrate the asymptotic normality of the segment levels under these assumptions. For inferences on the number of change-points, we show that the Bayesian approach can produce a consistent posterior estimate. Finally, we argue that the point-wise posterior convergence property as demonstrated might have bad finite sample performance in that consistent posterior for model selection necessarily implies the maximal squared risk will be asymptotically larger than the optimal O(1/ √

Bayesian change point estimation in Poisson-based control charts

Precise identification of the time when a process has changed enables process engineers to search for a potential special cause more effectively. In this paper, we develop change point estimation methods for a Poisson process in a Bayesian framework. We apply Bayesian hierarchical models to formulate the change point where there exists a step < /div> change, a linear trend and a known multip...

Improving the Performance of Bayesian Estimation Methods in Estimations of Shift Point and Comparison with MLE Approach

A Bayesian analysis is used to detect a change-point in a sequence of independent random variables from exponential distributions. In This paper, we try to estimate change point which occurs in any sequence of independent exponential observations. The Bayes estimators are derived for change point, the rate of exponential distribution before shift and the rate of exponential distribution after s...

Bayesian Estimation of Change Point in Phase One Risk Adjusted Control Charts

Use of risk adjusted control charts for monitoring patients’ surgical outcomes is now popular.These charts are developed based on considering the patient’s pre-operation risks. Change point detection is a crucial problem in statistical process control (SPC).It helpsthe managers toanalyzeroot causes of out-of-control conditions more effectively. Since the control chart signals do not necessarily...

Bayesian Estimation of the Multiple Change Points in Gamma Process Using X-bar chart

The process personnel always seek the opportunity to improve the processes. One of the essential steps for process improvement is to quickly recognize the starting time or the change point of a process disturbance. Different from the traditional normally distributed assumption for a process, this study considers a process which follows a gamma process. In addition, we consider the possibility o...

Bayesian Quantile Regression with Adaptive Elastic Net Penalty for Longitudinal Data

Longitudinal studies include the important parts of epidemiological surveys, clinical trials and social studies. In longitudinal studies, measurement of the responses is conducted repeatedly through time. Often, the main goal is to characterize the change in responses over time and the factors that influence the change. Recently, to analyze this kind of data, quantile regression has been taken ...
