A note on bounded influence in Bayesian analysis
贝叶斯分析中有界影响的一个注记
Let χ be a single observation from a distribution having unknown location parameter θ. Dawid (1973) provided sufficient conditions for the posterior distribution of θ to approach the prior distribution as χ tends to infinity, so that an outlier has bounded and vanishing influence on the posterior distribution. We present a result closely related to Dawid's theorem. This enables us to consider priors and likelihoods for the location problem which have bounded but nonvanishing…
