通过粗化实现稳健贝叶斯推断AI 解读

The standard approach to Bayesian inference is based on the assumption that the distribution of the data belongs to the chosen model class. However, even a small violation of this assumption can have a large impact on the outcome of a Bayesian procedure. We introduce a novel approach to Bayesian inference that improves robustness to small departures from the model: rather than conditioning on the event that the observed data are generated by the model, one conditions on the…

固定边际和矩阵的精确抽样与计数AI 解读

The uniform distribution on matrices with specified row and column sums is often a natural choice of null model when testing for structure in two-way tables (binary or nonnegative integer). Due to the difficulty of sampling from this distribution, many approximate methods have been developed. We will show that by exploiting certain symmetries, exact sampling and counting is in fact possible in many nontrivial real-world cases. We illustrate with real datasets including…
