In high dimensional data analysis, we propose a sequential model averaging (SMA) method to make accurate and stable predictions. Specifically, we introduce a hybrid approach that combines a sequential screening process with a model averaging algorithm, where the weight of each model is determined by its Bayesian information (BIC) score (Schwarz, 1978; Chen and Chen, 2008). The sequential techni...

Important objectives in the development of stratified medicines include the identification and confirmation of subgroups of patients with a beneficial treatment effect and a positive benefit-risk balance. We report the results of a literature review on methodological approaches to the design and analysis of clinical trials investigating a potential heterogeneity of treatment effects across subg...

Presented here is a Bayesian approach to test case allocation in the software reliability estimation. Bayesian analysis allows us to update our beliefs about the reliability of a particular partition as we test, and thus, dynamically refine our allocation of test cases during the reliability testing process. We started with a fully sequential sampling scheme to estimate the reliability of a sof...

In the conduct of sequential clinical trials, primary statistical issues include design , monitoring and reporting. Currently, approaches built upon frequentist inference methodology predominate. Focusing on the design aspect, our objective is the development of a very general Bayesian framework permitting multiple arms with multiple patient endpoints and multiple stopping criteria. It is impor...

The present paper introduces the Bayesian spectral analysis as a powerful and efficient method for spectral analysis of photometric time series. For this purpose, Bayesian spectral analysis has programmed in Matlab software for XZ Dra photometric time series which is non-uniform with large gaps and the power spectrum of this analysis has compared with the power spectrum which obtained from the ...

In this paper, we develop a simulation-based approach for two-stage stochastic programs with recourse. We construct an augmented probability model with stochastic shocks and decision variables. Simulating from the augmented probability model solves for the expected recourse function and the optimal first-stage decision. Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, together with ergodic averaging, provide ...

The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, it briefly introduces basic Bayesian techniques with emphasis on present applications in sensor networks. Second, it reviews modern Bayesian simulation methods, thereby providing an introduction to the main building blocks of the advanced Markov chain Monte Carlo and Sequential Monte Carlo methods. Lastly, it discusses new interesting research hori...

We consider a method for approximate inference in hidden Markov models (HMMs). The method circumvents the need to evaluate conditional densities of observations given the hidden states. It may be considered an instance of Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) and it involves the introduction of auxiliary variables valued in the same space as the observations. The quality of the approximation m...

Censored (or truncated) observations are quite prevalent in practice. How does the existence of imperfect observations affect optimal decisions? We consider this problem in the setting of a general finite-horizon Bayesian sequential decision process. We first prove a general derivative result that resembles the classic envelope theorem. We then show that for a class of Bayesian sequential decis...

The problem of coalition formation when agents are uncertain about the types or capabilities of their potential partners is a critical one. In [3] a Bayesian reinforcement learning framework is developed for this problem when coalitions are formed (and tasks undertaken) repeatedly: not only does the model allow agents to refine their beliefs about the types of others, but uses value of informat...
