Bayesian Inconsistency under Misspecification
This is a synopsis of the work underlying the author’s contributed plenary presentation at the Valencia 8 meeting on Bayesian Statistics, held in Benidorm, June 2006. We show that Bayesian inference can be inconsistent under misspecification. Specifically, we exhibit a distribution P ∗, a model M with P ∗ 6∈ M, and a prior Π on M such that the prior puts significant mass on P̃ , the best approxi...
متن کاملAn information approach to regularization parameter selection under model misspecification
We review the information approach to regularization parameter selection and its information complexity extension for the solution of discrete ill posed problems. An information criterion for regularization parameter selection was first proposed by Shibata in the context of ridge regression as an extension of Takeuchi’s information criterion. In the information approach, the regularization para...
متن کاملProbably approximate Bayesian computation: nonasymptotic convergence of ABC under misspecification
Abstract. Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is a widely used inference method in Bayesian statistics to bypass the point-wise computation of the likelihood. In this paper we develop theoretical bounds for the distance between the statistics used in ABC. We show that some versions of ABC are inherently robust to mispecification. The bounds are given in the form of oracle inequalities for a ...
متن کاملConsistency of Bayesian Procedures for Variable Selection
It has long been known that for the comparison of pairwise nested models, a decision based on the Bayes factor produces a consistent model selector (in the frequentist sense). Here we go beyond the ∗Distinguished Professor, Department of Statistics, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611. Supported by National Science Foundation Grant DMS-04-05543.

متن کاملEstimation and Model Selection of Semiparametric Copula-Based Multivariate Dynamic Models Under Copula Misspecification∗
Recently Chen and Fan (2003a) introduced a new class of semiparametric copula-based multivariate dynamic (SCOMDY) models. A SCOMDY model specifies the conditional mean and the conditional variance of a multivariate time series parametrically (such as VAR, GARCH), but specifies the multivariate distribution of the standardized innovation semiparametrically as a parametric copula evaluated at non...
