Semi-parametric Bayesian inference under Neyman orthogonality
Neyman 正交性下的半参数贝叶斯推断
The validity of two-step or plug-in inference methods is questioned in the Bayesian framework. We study semi-parametric models where the plug-in of a non-parametrically modelled nuisance component is used. We show that when the nuisance and targeted parameters satisfy a Neyman orthogonal score property, the approach of cutting feedback through a two-step procedure is a valid way of conducting Bayesian inference. Our method relies on a non-parametric Bayesian formulation…
