A Semiparametric Model for Bayesian Reader Identification
We study the problem of identifying individuals based on their characteristic gaze patterns during reading of arbitrary text. The motivation for this problem is an unobtrusive biometric setting in which a user is observed during access to a document, but no specific challenge protocol requiring the user’s time and attention is carried out. Existing models of individual differences in gaze contr...
متن کاملA Bayesian Semiparametric Transformation Model Incorporating Frailties
We describe a Bayesian semiparametric (failure time) transformation model for which an unknown monotone transformation of failure times is assumed linearly dependent on observed covariates with an unspecified error distribution. The two unknowns: the monotone transformation and error distribution are assigned prior distributions with large supports. Our class of regression model includes the pr...
متن کاملA Bayesian semiparametric model for volatility with a leverage effect
A Bayesian semiparametric stochastic volatility model for financial data is developed. This estimates the return distribution from the data allowing for stylized facts such as heavy tails and jumps in prices whilst also allowing for correlation between the returns and changes in volatility, the leverage effect. An efficient MCMC algorithm for inference is described. The model is applied to simu...
متن کاملA Bayesian semiparametric latent variable model for mixed responses
In this article we introduce a latent variable model (LVM) for mixed ordinal and continuous responses, where covariate effects on the continuous latent variables are modelled through a flexible semiparametric predictor. We extend existing LVM with simple linear covariate effects by including nonparametric components for nonlinear effects of continuous covariates and interactions with other cova...
متن کاملA Semiparametric Bayesian Model for Detecting Synchrony Among Multiple Neurons
We propose a scalable semiparametric Bayesian model to capture dependencies among multiple neurons by detecting their cofiring (possibly with some lag time) patterns over time. After discretizing time so there is at most one spike at each interval, the resulting sequence of 1s (spike) and 0s (silence) for each neuron is modeled using the logistic function of a continuous latent variable with a ...
