متن کاملGibbs Sampling for a Bayesian Hierarchical General Linear Model
We consider two-component block Gibbs sampling for a Bayesian hierarchical version of the normal theory general linear model. This model is practically relevant in the sense that it is general enough to have many applications and in that it is not straightforward to sample directly from the corresponding posterior distribution. There are two possible orders in which to update the components of ...
متن کاملEstimating catch at age from market sampling data by using a Bayesian hierarchical model
As part of the process of setting fishing quotas, every country in Europe with a fishing fleet reports the total annual catch at age of various species to the International Council for the Exploration of the Seas. A variety of sampling schemes have been established for this, and the data are analysed in a range of ways. A common feature of most of these methods is that there is no statistical m...
متن کاملHIERARCHICAL DATA CLUSTERING MODEL FOR ANALYZING PASSENGERS’ TRIP IN HIGHWAYS
One of the most important issues in urban planning is developing sustainable public transportation. The basic condition for this purpose is analyzing current condition especially based on data. Data mining is a set of new techniques that are beyond statistical data analyzing. Clustering techniques is a subset of it that one of it’s techniques used for analyzing passengers’ trip. The result of...
متن کاملNutrition in humanitarian crises.
It is anticipated that humanitarian crisis situations will continue to occur in countries of the Eastern Mediterranean Region affecting large segments of vulnerable populations. Subsequently the magnitude and effectiveness of the humanitarian response, particularly for food and nutrition, must be based on best practices and sound information of affected populations.
