方差还是标准差？高维收缩中的壳层几何与全局尺度先验AI 解读

We study how the choice of default prior for a common Gaussian scale affects high-dimensional shrinkage risk, highlighting the role played by high-dimensional geometry. Formally, we consider a high-dimensional setting in which the near-zero behavior of the common scale prior has first-order consequences for shrinkage risk, and show that priors that are flat on the variance and those flat on the standard deviation allocate markedly different mass near the zero-scale boundary,…

利用既有研究设计实验：经验贝叶斯方法AI 解读

We develop an empirical Bayes framework for experimental design that leverages information from prior related studies. When a researcher has access to estimates from previous studies on similar parameters, they can use empirical Bayes to estimate an informative prior over the parameter of interest in the new study. We show how this prior can be incorporated into a decision-theoretic experimental design framework to choose optimal design. The approach is illustrated via…
