Tracking time-varying parameters with local regression
This paper shows that the recursive least-squares (RLS) algorithm with forgetting factor is a special case of a varying-coe$cient model, and a model which can easily be estimated via simple local regression. This observation allows us to formulate a new method which retains the RLS algorithm, but extends the algorithm by including polynomial approximations. Simulation results are provided, whic...
متن کاملBayesian Additive Regression Trees
We develop a Bayesian “sum-of-trees” model where each tree is constrained by a regularization prior to be a weak learner, and fitting and inference are accomplished via an iterative Bayesian backfitting MCMC algorithm that generates samples from a posterior. Effectively, BART is a nonparametric Bayesian regression approach which uses dimensionally adaptive random basis elements. Motivated by en...
متن کاملBayesian Additive Regression Trees using Bayesian model averaging
Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) is a statistical sum of trees model. It can be considered a Bayesian version of machine learning tree ensemble methods where the individual trees are the base learners. However for datasets where the number of variables p is large (e.g. p > 5, 000) the algorithm can become prohibitively expensive, computationally. Another method which is popular for hig...
متن کاملBayesian inference of time varying parameters in autoregressive processes
In the autoregressive process of first order AR(1), a homogeneous correlated time series ut is recursively constructed as ut = q ut−1 + σ t, using random Gaussian deviates t and fixed values for the correlation coefficient q and for the noise amplitude σ. To model temporally heterogeneous time series, the coefficients qt and σt can be regarded as time-dependent variables by themselves, leading ...
متن کاملParallel Bayesian Additive Regression Trees
Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) is a Bayesian approach to flexible non-linear regression which has been shown to be competitive with the best modern predictive methods such as those based on bagging and boosting. BART offers some advantages. For example, the stochastic search Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm can provide a more complete search of the model space and variation ...
