In partially exploratory factor analysis (PEFA), the loading structure and factor numbers are weakly specified. The regularized variational approximation for partially confirmatory factor analysis (PCFA VA) recovers this structure via Bayesian variable selection, using spike and slab priors to assign inclusion probabilities to unspecified loadings. This research introduces a post selection assessment framework for this approach. We convert converged solutions into covariance models using either hard selection (thresholding probabilities into a sparse pattern) or soft selection (retaining them as weights for effective parameter counts). We derive the resulting degrees of freedom, absolute fit diagnostics (RMSEA, SRMR, CFI, TLI), and relative criteria (AIC, BIC, ELBO). To determine factor numbers, we propose a scale free gain rule with a sustained drop guard. Simulations show absolute indices successfully track loading recovery and flag under factoring. While raw criteria over factor, our gain rule accurately recovers true dimensionality, with the ELBO variant proving most robust. Finally, a 100 item PID 5 example demonstrates that our model fits better than a confirmatory 25 facet model and concordantly recovers major structures across disjoint specifications.
经济增长建模的贝叶斯方法:变量选择与截面依赖
This paper introduces a Bayesian framework designed to address two critical econometric challenges in empirical growth studies: variable selection and cross-sectional dependence. We first propose a growth regression model that incorporates cross-sectional dependence through a multi-factor structure and accounts for variable selection with sparse coefficients. We then introduce a new Bayesian Adaptive LASSO estimator specifically designed for this model, capable of performing…
利用变分推断选择载荷的稀疏动态因子模型
In this paper we develop a novel approach for estimating large and sparse dynamic factor models using variational inference, also allowing for missing data. Inspired by Bayesian variable selection, we apply slab-and-spike priors onto the factor loadings to deal with sparsity. An algorithm is developed to find locally optimal mean field approximations of posterior distributions, which can be obtained computationally fast, making it suitable for nowcasting and frequently…
收缩与稀疏估计的贝叶斯方法
In all areas of human knowledge, datasets are increasing in both size and complexity, creating the need for richer statistical models. This trend is also true for economic data, where high-dimensional and nonlinear/nonparametric inference is the norm in several fields of applied econometric work. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the reader to the world of Bayesian model determination, by surveying modern shrinkage and variable selection algorithms and methodologies.…
不完整数据下动态因子模型的最大后验估计
In this paper, we present a method of maximum a posteriori estimation of parameters in dynamic factor models with incomplete data. We extend maximum likelihood expectation maximization iterations by Bańbura & Modugno (2014) to penalized counterparts by applying parameter shrinkage in a Minnesota prior style fashion, also considering factors loading onto variables dynamically. A heuristic and adapting shrinkage scheme is considered. The algorithm is applicable to any…
贝叶斯因子调整稀疏回归
This paper investigates the high-dimensional linear regression with highly correlated covariates. In this setup, the traditional sparsity assumption on the regression coefficients often fails to hold, and consequently many model selection procedures do not work. To address this challenge, we model the variations of covariates by a factor structure. Specifically, strong correlations among covariates are explained by common factors and the remaining variations are interpreted…
条件线性的矩阵正态状态空间模型
We develop a class of linear state space models for matrix-valued time series data where the state is a latent matrix normal process. We derive matrix versions of the Kalman filter, log-likelihood, and smoother enabling estimation of the latent state matrix as well as the model's parameters. To conduct Bayesian inference, we provide algorithms that draw from the joint posterior distribution of the latent state matrices conditional on the observed data and parameters. We…
