Bayesian Methods for Hierarchical Distance Sampling Models
The few distance sampling studies that use Bayesian methods typically consider only line transect sampling with a half-normal detection function. We present a Bayesian approach to analyse distance sampling data applicable to line and point transects, exact and interval distance data and any detection function possibly including covariates affecting detection probabilities. We use an integrated ...
متن کاملScalable Rejection Sampling for Bayesian Hierarchical Models
We develop a new method to sample from posterior distributions in Bayesian hierarchical models, as commonly used in marketing research, without using Markov chain Monte Carlo. This method, which is a variant of rejection sampling ideas, is generally applicable to high-dimensional models involving large data sets. Samples are independent, so they can be collected in parallel, and we do not need ...
متن کاملAlternative Methods for Fitting Two-Stage Hierarchical Bayesian Models
Although it is common practice to fit a complex Bayesian model using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, we provide an alternative sampling-based method to fit a two-stage hierarchical model in which there is conjugacy conditional on the parameters in the second stage. Using the sampling/importance resampling (SIR) algorithm, our method subsamples independent samples from an approximate jo...
متن کاملAnalysis of Hierarchical Bayesian Models for Large Space Time Data of the Housing Prices in Tehran
Housing price data is correlated to their location in different neighborhoods and their correlation is type of spatial (location). The price of housing is varius in different months, so they also have a time correlation. Spatio-temporal models are used to analyze this type of the data. An important purpose of reviewing this type of the data is to fit a suitable model for the spatial-temporal an...
متن کاملApproximating Message Lengths of Hierarchical Bayesian Models Using Posterior Sampling
Inference of complex hierarchical models is an increasingly common problem in modern Bayesian data analysis. Unfortunately, there are few computationally efficient and widely applicable methods for selecting between competing hierarchical models. In this paper we adapt ideas from the information theoretic minimum message length principle and propose a powerful yet simple model selection criteri...
