Bayesian Nonparametric and Parametric Inference
This paper reviews Bayesian Nonparametric methods and discusses how parametric predictive densities can be constructed using nonparametric ideas.
متن کاملAn Introduction to Inference and Learning in Bayesian Networks
Bayesian networks (BNs) are modern tools for modeling phenomena in dynamic and static systems and are used in different subjects such as disease diagnosis, weather forecasting, decision making and clustering. A BN is a graphical-probabilistic model which represents causal relations among random variables and consists of a directed acyclic graph and a set of conditional probabilities. Structure...
متن کاملBayesian approach to inference of population structure
Methods of inferring the population structure, its applications in identifying disease models as well as foresighting the physical and mental situation of human beings have been finding ever-increasing importance. In this article, first, motivation and significance of studying the problem of population structure is explained. In the next section, the applications of inference of p...
متن کاملBackground beliefs and evidence interpretation
In this paper we argue that it is often adaptive to use one’s background beliefs when interpreting information that, from a normative point of view, is incomplete. In both of the experiments reported here participants were presented with an item possessing two features and were asked to judge, in the light of some evidence concerning the features, to which of two categories it was more likely t...
متن کاملEffects in Bayesian inference
Recently there has been a lot of interest in the machine learning community in expressing Bayesian models as probabilistic programs in order to make them more reusable and compositional. Such programs have probabilistic effects and different ways of handling those effects correspond to different inference algorithms. Our goal is to present a problem that the HOPE community may find interesting ...
