Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBayesian Analysis of Longitudinal Ordinal Data Using Non-Identifiable Multivariate Probit ModelsXiao ZhangMultivariate probit models have been explored foranalyzing longitudinal ordinal data. However, the inherent identification issuein multivariate probit models requires the covariance matrix of the underlyinglatent multivariate normal variables to be a correlation matrix and thushinders the development of efficient Bayesian sampling methods. It is knownthat non-identifiable models may produce Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)samplers with better convergence and mixing than … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 14 Nov 2022 · 6,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Distribution-Free Bayesian Approach for Indirect ComparisonsJohanna S. van Zyl, Jack D. TubbsThe objective of this paper is to consider an indirect comparison between treatments B and C when each have been compared directly to treatment A in separate studies. Problems of this type are common in Network Meta-Analysis (NMA). A commonly used method assumes that the underlying data, Y, are normally distributed and µ = E(Y) is the measure of clinical … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 3 Jul 2019 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBAYESIAN MODEL AVERAGING WITH MARKOV CHAIN MONTE CARLO FOR CALIBRATING TEMPERATURE FORECAST FROM COMBINATION OF TIME SERIES MODELSHeri Kuswanto, Mega Rahmatia SariGlobal warming is an important issue related to the climate and weather forecast. It is shown by significantly increasing the atmospheric temperature level. Hence, improving the forecast accuracy of temperature is an important issue. The forecast is commonly done by performing a deterministic forecast meaning that the system will generate a point forecast without taking into account the uncertainty induced … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2013 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleToward a Hierarchical Bayesian Framework for Modelling the Effect of Regional Diversity on Household ExpenditurePudji Ismartini, Nur Iriawan, Setiawan, Brodjol Sutijo Supri UlamaProblem statement: Household expenditure analysis was highly demanding for government in order to formulate its policy. Since household data was viewed as hierarchical structure with household nested in its regional residence which varies inter region, the contextual welfare analysis was needed. This study proposed to develop a hierarchical model for estimating household expenditure in an attempt to measure the effect … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2012 · 7,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHigh-Order Interactions in Rheumatoid Arthritis Detected by Bayesian Method using Genome-Wide Association Studies DataJing Zhang, Zheyang Wu, Chao Gao, Michael Q. ZhangProblem statement: In order to reveal the missing genetic component of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) susceptibility, we carried out a genome-wide high-order epistatic interaction study for RA. Approach: A powerful Bayesian strategy was applied to analyze the data of Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) from the Welcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC), where 319 high-order interactions were found across the whole genome … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2012 · 8,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBayesian Framework in Repeated-Play Decision MakingYohei Kobayashi, Takemi FujikawaProblem statement: There have been much reported on decisions from experience, also referred to as decisions in a complete ignorance fashion. Approach: This note lays out a Bayesian decision-theoretical framework that provides a computable account for decisions from experience. Results: To make the framework more tractable, this note sets up and examines decisions in an incomplete ignorance fashion. The current … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Feb 2012 · 6,717 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBayesian Determination of Disease Associated Differences in Haplotype BlocksIvan Kozyryev, Jing ZhangProblem statement: While experimental ascertainment of haplotype blocks in the genome-scale case-control studies is expensive, accurate computational phasing is still a daunting task for bioinformatics approaches. We used a statistical method to determine differences, potentially associated with a certain disease, in linkage disequilibrium block boundaries in whole-genome Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) data. Approach: We utilized a Bayesian model for calculating … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2012 · 8,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBayesian Methods for Ranking the Severity of Apnea among PatientsNur Zakiah Mohd Saat, Kamarulzaman Ibrahim, Abdul Aziz JemainProblem statement: Studies on apnea patients are often carried out based on data obtained from the sleep study. This data is quite scarce since high cost is required for conducting the study. Bayesian method is particularly suitable for analyzing limited data as it allows for updating of information by combining the current information with the prior belief. Approach: In this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,550 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBayesian Regularization in a Neural Network Model to Estimate Lines of Code Using Function PointsK. K. Aggarwal, Yogesh Singh, Pravin Chandra, Manimala PuriIt is a well known fact that at the beginning of any project, the software industry needs to know, how much will it cost to develop and what would be the time required ? . This paper examines the potential of using a neural network model for estimating the lines of code, once the functional requirements are known. Using the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 30,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImprovement of Bayesian Credible Interval for a Small Binomial Proportion Using Logit TransformationToru Ogura, Takemi YanagimotoA novel credible interval of the binomial proportion is proposed by improving the Highest Posterior Density (HPD) interval using the logit transformation. It is constructed in two steps: first the HPD interval for the logit transformation of the binomial proportion is driven and then the corresponding credible interval of the binomial proportion is calculated by the inverse logit transformation of … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 20 Nov 2018 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
