Bayesian Spatial Semi-Parametric Modeling of HIV Variation in Kenya
Spatial statistics has seen rapid application in many fields, especially epidemiology and public health. Many studies, nonetheless, make limited use of the geographical location information and also usually assume that the covariates, which are related to the response variable, have linear effects. We develop a Bayesian semi-parametric regression model for HIV prevalence data. Model estimation ...
متن کاملBayesian Semi-Parametric Modeling of Time-to-Event Data
Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. The multiresolution estimator, originally a wavelet-based method for density estimation, was recently extended for estimation of hazard functions. The multiresolution hazard (MRH) metho...
متن کاملNon-parametric Bayesian modeling of complex networks
Modeling structure in complex networks using Bayesian non-parametrics makes it possible to specify flexible model structures and infer the adequate model complexity from the observed data. This paper provides a gentle introduction to non-parametric Bayesian modeling of complex networks: Using an infinite mixture model as running example we go through the steps of deriving the model as an infini...
متن کاملPossible determinants and spatial patterns of anaemia among young children in Nigeria: a Bayesian semi-parametric modelling.
BACKGROUND Anaemia is a global public health problem affecting both developing and developed countries with major consequences for human health and socioeconomic development. This paper examines the possible relationship between Hb concentration and severity of anaemia with individual and household characteristics of children aged 6-59 months in Nigeria; and explores possible geographical varia...
متن کاملDuration of Internet Firms: a Semi-parametric Bayesian Survival Analysis
We test an explanatory model of Internet firm duration after their initial public offerings (IPOs) using a Cox proportional hazards model and a semi-parametric Bayesian survival analysis. The empirical model shows that industry-, firmand e-commerce related variables, such as the entry of competing IPOs and the selling of digital products or services, can reduce an Internet firm’s hazard rate. I...
