Bayesian Analysis of Multivariate Probit Models
This paper provides a uni ed simulation-based Bayesian and non-Bayesian analysis of correlated binary data using the multivariate probit model. The posterior distribution is simulated by Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, and maximum likelihood estimates are obtained by a Monte Carlo version of the E-M algorithm. Computation of Bayes factors from the simulation output is also considered. The met...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Ordinal Data Using Multivariate Probit Models
Multivariate ordinal data arise in many areas of applications. This paper proposes new efficient methodology for Bayesian inference for multivariate probit models using Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques. The key idea for our approach is the novel use of parameter expansion to sample correlation matrices. We also propose methodology for model selection. Our approach is demonstrated through sev...
متن کاملSymmetric Bayesian Multinomial Probit Models
Standard Bayesian multinomial probit (MNP) models that are fit using different base categories can give different predictions. Therefore, we propose the symmetric MNP model, which does not make reference to a base category. To achieve this, we employ novel sum-to-zero identifying restrictions on the latent utilities and regression coefficients that define the model. This results in a model whos...
متن کاملthe application of multivariate probit models for conditional claim-types (the case study of iranian car insurance industry)
هدف اصلی نرخ گذاری بیمه ای تعیین نرخ عادلانه و منطقی از دیدگاه بیمه گر و بیمه گذار است. تعین نرخ یکی از مهم ترین مسایلی است که شرکتهای بیمه با آن روبرو هستند، زیرا تعیین نرخ اصلی ترین عامل در رقابت بین شرکتها است. برای تعیین حق بیمه ابتدا می باید مقدار مورد انتظار ادعای خسارت برای هر قرارداد بیمه را برآورد کرد. روش عمومی مدل سازی خسارتهای عملیاتی در نظر گرفتن تواتر و شدت خسارتها می باشد. اگر شر...
