Bayesian model averaging with non-conjugate priors
采用非共轭先验的贝叶斯模型平均
This paper considers the case of non-conjugate prior distributions for Bayesian model averaging (BMA). Although the natural conjugate setting is the default choice for BMA, mainly for reasons of analytical tractability, it has come under considerable criticism due to its unrealistic assumptions about prior information, among others. In this study, we extend the literature by considering two special cases of the multivariate Student-t distribution. We obtain closed-form…
