Nonparametric Bayesian Learning of Switching Linear Dynamical Systems
Many nonlinear dynamical phenomena can be effectively modeled by a system that switches among a set of conditionally linear dynamical modes. We consider two such models: the switching linear dynamical system (SLDS) and the switching vector autoregressive (VAR) process. Our nonparametric Bayesian approach utilizes a hierarchical Dirichlet process prior to learn an unknown number of persistent, s...
متن کاملSmoothing Locally Smooth Processes by Bayesian Nonparametric Methods
This report is concerned with the analysis of stochastic processes of the form R(x) = S(x) + N(x) where S is a "smooth", N is noise, and all quantities including x are real-valued. Our methods, which can easily be extended to a much more general class of stochastic processes, derive from the assumption that the observed R-values and unobserved values of R (interpolants or predictands, the assum...
متن کاملMethods for Markov-Switching Models
I develop a toolbox to analyze the statistical properties of multivariate Markov-switching models. I first derive analytical formulas for the evolution of first and second moments, taking into account the possibility of regime changes. The formulas are then used to characterize the evolution of expectations and uncertainty, the propagation of the shocks, the contribution of the shocks to the ov...
متن کاملNonparametric Bayesian Methods
. Most of this book emphasizes frequentist methods, especially for nonparametric problems. However, there are Bayesian approaches to many nonparametric problems. In this chapter we present some of the most commonly used nonparametric Bayesian methods. These methods place priors on infinite dimensional spaces. The priors are based on certain stochastic processes called Dirichlet processes and Ga...
متن کاملNonparametric Bayesian Regression Methods
A common problem in statistics, and other disciplines , is to approximate adequately a function of several variables. In this paper we review some possible nonparametric Bayesian models with which we can perform this multiple regression problem. We shall also demonstrate how these basic models can be extended to allow the analysis of time series , both conventional and nancial, survival analysi...
