A Bayesian Semi-parametric Model to Estimate Relationships Between Crash Counts and Roadway Characteristics
This paper uses a semi-parametric Poisson-gamma model to estimate the relationships between crash counts and various roadway characteristics, including curvature, traffic levels, speed limit and surface width. A Bayesian nonparametric estimation procedure is employed for the model’s link function, substantially reducing the risk of a mis-specified model. It is shown via simulation that little i...

آب حاصل از بارش منبع تأمین نیازهای بی شمار جانداران به ویژه انسان است و هرگونه کاهش در کم و کیف آن مستقیماً حیات موجودات زنده را تحت تأثیر منفی قرار می دهد. نوسان سال به سال بارش از ویژگی های اساسی و بسیار مهم بارش های سالانه ایران محسوب می شود که آثار زیان بار آن در تمام عرصه های اقتصادی، اجتماعی و حتی سیاسی- امنیتی به نحوی منعکس می شود. چون میزان آب ناشی از بارش یکی از مولفه های اصلی برنامه ...
15 صفحه اولBayesian evaluation of a semi-parametric binary response model
In this paper, we develop a Bayesian analysis of a semi-parametric binary choice model. The prior speciication of the functional parameter , namely the distribution function of a latent variable, is of the Dirichlet process type and the prior speciication of the Euclidean parameter , namely the coeecients of a linear combination of exogenous variables, is left arbitrary. The model identiication...
متن کاملA Bayesian semi-parametric model for small area estimation
In public health management there is a need to produce subnational estimates of health outcomes. Often, however, funds are not available to collect samples large enough to produce traditional survey sample estimates for each subnational area. Although parametric hierarchical methods have been successfully used to derive estimates from small samples, there is a concern that the geographic divers...
متن کاملA Bayesian Semi-Parametric Model for Random Effects Meta-Analysis
In meta-analysis there is an increasing trend to explicitly acknowledge the presence of study variability through random effects models. That is, one assumes that for each study, there is a study-specific effect and one is observing an estimate of this latent variable. In a random effects model, one assumes that these study-specific effects come from some distribution, and one can estimate the ...
