An Efficient Bayesian Optimal Design for Logistic Model

Authors

Abstract:

Consider a Bayesian optimal design with many support points which poses the problem of collecting data with a few number of observations at each design point. Under such a scenario the asymptotic property of using Fisher information matrix for approximating the covariance matrix of posterior ML estimators might be doubtful. We suggest to use Bhattcharyya matrix in deriving the information matrix, led to modified Bayesian D-optimal criterion. This criterion is used to obtain optimal design for logistic model. It is shown that the resulting optimal design is more efficient than design given by Chaloner and Larentz (1989) using ordinary Bayesian D-optimal criterion.

Optimal Bayesian Design Applied to Logistic Regression Experiments

A traditional way to design a binary response experiment is to design the experiment to be most efficient for a best guess of the parameter values. A design which is optimal for a best guess however may not be efficient for parameter values close to that best guess. We propose designs which formally account for the prior uncertainty in the parameter values. A design for a situation where the be...

Optimal Design of Experiments for the Quadratic Logistic Model

Optimal design of experiments for binary data is the topic of this thesis. A particular logistic model containing a quadratic linear predictor and one control variable is considered. The problem that the optimal designs for this model depends on the unknown true parameters is in focus. The aim of the …rst paper is to examine the small sample performance of the optimal designs and to investigate...

Bayesian Logistic Regression Model Choice via Laplace-Metropolis Algorithm

Following a Bayesian statistical inference paradigm, we provide an alternative methodology for analyzing a multivariate logistic regression. We use a multivariate normal prior in the Bayesian analysis. We present a unique Bayes estimator associated with a prior which is admissible. The Bayes estimators of the coefficients of the model are obtained via MCMC methods. The proposed procedure...

The Design and Construction of an Efficient Model for Teaching Science in Junior High School

Analysis of Desk Graffiti in Karaj High Schools F. Aabedi M. Monaadi, Ph.D. Writing graffiti on the walls and furniture as a means of expressing disappointments, wishes, and ideals is an old habit. From a socio-pathological perspective it may be considered a delinquent act, it is a way of communication between the writer and the readers of the graffiti. To analyze the content ...

Bayesian Inference and Optimal Design for the Sparse Linear Model

The linear model with sparsity-favouring prior on the coefficients has important applications in many different domains. In machine learning, most methods to date search for maximum a posteriori sparse solutions and neglect to represent posterior uncertainties. In this paper, we address problems of Bayesian optimal design (or experiment planning), for which accurate estimates of uncertainty are...
