Exponential Models: Approximations for Probabilities
Welch & Peers (1963) used a root-information prior to obtain posterior probabilities for a scalar parameter exponential model and showed that these Bayes probabilities had the confidence property to second order asymptotically. An important undercurrent of this indicates that the constant information reparameterization provides location model structure, for which the confidence property ...

متن کاملPreprint #06-5 NORMAL APPROXIMATIONS FOR COMPUTING CONFIDENCE INTERVALS FOR LOG-LOCATION-SCALE DISTRIBUTION PROBABILITIES
Normal approximation confidence intervals are used in most commercial statistical package because they are easy to compute. However, the performance of such procedures could be poor when the sample size is not large or when there is heavy censoring. A transformation can be applied to avoid having confidence interval endpoints fall outside the parameter space and otherwise improves performance, ...

متن کاملA Sparse Factor-Analytic Probit Model for Congressional Voting Patterns
This paper adapts sparse factor models for exploring covariation in multivariate binary data, with an application to measuring latent factors in U.S. Congressional roll call voting patterns. This straightforward modification provides two advantages over traditional factor analysis of binary data. First, a sparsity prior can be used to assess the evidence that a given factor loading may be exact...
