Fully Bayesian spline smoothing and intrinsic autoregressive priors
完全贝叶斯样条平滑与内蕴自回归先验
There is a well‐known Bayesian interpretation for function estimation by spline smoothing using a limit of proper normal priors. The limiting prior and the conditional and intrinsic autoregressive priors popular for spatial modelling have a common form, which we call partially informative normal. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the propriety of the posterior for this class of partially informative normal priors with noninformative priors on the variance…
