Bayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملBayesian inference for generalized linear mixed models.
Generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) continue to grow in popularity due to their ability to directly acknowledge multiple levels of dependency and model different data types. For small sample sizes especially, likelihood-based inference can be unreliable with variance components being particularly difficult to estimate. A Bayesian approach is appealing but has been hampered by the lack of a ...
متن کاملApproximate Bayesian Inference in Spatial Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In this paper we propose fast approximate methods for computing posterior marginals in spatial generalized linear mixed models. We consider the common geostatistical special case with a high dimensional latent spatial variable and observations at only a few known registration sites. Our methods of inference are deterministic, using no random sampling. We present two methods of approximate infer...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Sparse Generalized Linear Models
We present a framework for efficient, accurate approximate Bayesian inference in generalized linear models (GLMs), based on the expectation propagation (EP) technique. The parameters can be endowed with a factorizing prior distribution, encoding properties such as sparsity or non-negativity. The central role of posterior log-concavity in Bayesian GLMs is emphasized and related to stability issu...
متن کاملConditional Inference about Generalized Linear Mixed Models
We propose a method of inference for generalized linear mixed models Ž . GLMM that in many ways resembles the method of least squares. We also show that adequate inference about GLMM can be made based on the conditional likelihood on a subset of the random effects. One of the important features of our methods is that they rely on weak distributional assumptions about the random effects. The met...
