随机场谱密度函数的非参数贝叶斯推断AI 解读

A powerful technique for inference concerning spatial dependence in a random field is to use spectral methods based on frequency domain analysis. Here we develop a nonparametric Bayesian approach to statistical inference for the spectral density of a random field. We construct a multi-dimensional Bernstein polynomial prior for the spectral density and devise a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate from the posterior of the spectral density. The posterior sampling…

影响函数与稳健贝叶斯、经验贝叶斯小区域估计AI 解读

We introduce new robust small area estimation procedures based on area-level models. We first find influence functions corresponding to each individual area-level observation by measuring the divergence between the posterior density functions of regression coefficients with and without that observation. Next, based on these influence functions, properly standardized, we propose some new robust Bayes and empirical Bayes small area estimators. The mean squared errors and…
