A focused information criterion for graphical models
A new method for model selection for Gaussian Bayesian networks and Markov networks, with extensions towards ancestral graphs, is constructed to have good mean squared error properties. The method is based on the focused information criterion, and offers the possibility of fitting individualtailored models. The focus of the research, that is, the purpose of the model, directs the selection. It ...
متن کاملA widely applicable Bayesian information criterion
A statistical model or a learning machine is called regular if the map taking a parameter to a probability distribution is one-to-one and if its Fisher information matrix is always positive definite. If otherwise, it is called singular. In regular statistical models, the Bayes free energy, which is defined by the minus logarithm of Bayes marginal likelihood, can be asymptotically approximated b...
متن کاملA Bayesian information criterion for portfolio selection
The mean-variance theory of Markowitz (1952) indicates that large investment portfolios naturally provide better risk diversification than small ones. However, due to parameter estimation errors, one may find ambiguous results in practice. Hence, it is essential to identify relevant stocks to alleviate the impact of estimation error in portfolio selection. To this end, we propose a linkage cond...
متن کاملA Bayesian information criterion for singular models
We consider approximate Bayesian model choice for model selection problems that involve models whose Fisher-information matrices may fail to be invertible along other competing submodels. Such singular models do not obey the regularity conditions underlying the derivation of Schwarz’s Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and the penalty structure in BIC generally does not reflect the frequentis...
متن کاملStructure learning using a focused information criterion in graphical models
A new method for model selection for Gaussian directed acyclic graphs (DAG) and Gaussian graphical models (GGM), with extensions towards ancestral graphs (AG), is constructed to have good prediction properties. The method is based on the focused information criterion, and offers the possibility of fitting individual tailored models. The focus of the research, that is, the purpose of the model, ...
