Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase 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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Comparison of the Bayesian and Other Methods for Estimation of Reliability Function for Burr-XII DistributionSafaa Ali Nasir, Nashaat Jaisam Al-AnberProblem statement: The Burr-XII distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of life time event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of application in many areas and the main advantage is its ability in the context of life time event among other distributions. The conventional maximum likelihood method is the usual way to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBayesian Models for Time Series with Covariates, Trend, Seasonality, Autoregression and OutliersPitsanu Tongkhow, Nantachai KantananthaBayesian methods furnish an attractive approach to time series data analysis. This article proposes the forecasting models that can detect trend, seasonality, auto regression and outliers in time series data related to some covariates. Cumulative Weibull distribution functions for trend, dummy variables for seasonality, binary selections for outliers and latent autoregression for autocorrelated time series data are used for the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 Apr 2013 · 6,653 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParameter-Expanded Data Augmentation for Analyzing Nominal Data With Missing Values Using Multinomial Probit ModelsSuwash Silwal, Xiao ZhangNominal data occur in many scientific fields, such as health-related studies, transportation, and econometrics. Due to the ubiquitousness of missing data, it is inevitable to analyze nominal data with missing values. As is well known, statistical methods for analyzing nominal variables are quite limited. The Multinomial Probit (MNP) model has been an essential tool for analyzing nominal categorical data, but … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 23 May 2026 · 1,804 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Drug-Target Interaction Prediction Based on Supervised Probabilistic ClassificationManmohan Singh, Susheel Kumar Tiwari, G. Swapna et al.Bayesian ranking-based drug-target relationship prediction has achieved good results, but it ignores the relationship between drugs of the same target. A new method is proposed for drug-target relationship prediction based on groups by Appling Bayesian. According to the reality that drugs interacting with a specific target have similarities, a grouping strategy was introduced to make these similar drugs interact. A … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 10 · 1 Sep 2023 · 5,454 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian 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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTilted Beta Binomial Linear Regression Model: A Bayesian ApproachEdilberto Cepeda-Cuervo, Maria Victoria Cifuentes-AmadoThis paper proposes new linear regression models to deal with overdispersed binomial datasets. These new models, called tilted beta binomial regression models, are defined from the tilted beta binomial distribution, proposed assuming that the parameter of the binomial distribution follows a tilted beta distribution. As a particular case of this regression models, we propose the beta rectangular binomial regression models, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2020 · 8,784 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObesity Level Estimation Software based on Decision TreesEduardo De-La-Hoz-Correa, Fabio E. Mendoza-Palechor, Alexis De-La-Hoz-Manotas et al.Obesity has become a global epidemic that has doubled since 1980, with serious consequences for health in children, teenagers and adults. Obesity is a problem has been growing steadily and that is why every day appear new studies involving children obesity, especially those looking for influence factors and how to predict emergence of the condition under these factors. In this … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2019 · 14,100 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMCMC-Fuzzy: A Fuzzy Metric Applied to Bayesian Network Structure LearningBeatriz Wilges, Ademar Crotti Junior, Silvia Modesto NassarBayesian network structure learning is considered a complex task as the number of possible structures grows exponentially with the number of variables. Two main methods are used for Bayesian network structure learning: Conditional independence, a method in which a structure is created consistently with independence tests performed on data; and the heuristic search method that explores the structure space. Hybrid … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 24 Aug 2018 · 8,243 accessesView PDF Cite
