Dynamic Bayesian Information Measures
This paper introduces measures of information for Bayesian analysis when the support of data distribution is truncated progressively. The focus is on the lifetime distributions where the support is truncated at the current age t>=0. Notions of uncertainty and information are presented and operationalized by Shannon entropy, Kullback-Leibler information, and mutual information. Dynamic updatings...
متن کاملAxiomatic Characterizations of Information Measures
Axiomatic characterizations of Shannon entropy, Kullback I-divergence, and some generalized information measures are surveyed. Three directions are treated: (A) Characterization of functions of probability distributions suitable as information measures. (B) Characterization of set functions on the subsets of {1, . . . , N} representable by joint entropies of components of an N -dimensional rand...
متن کاملSome inequalities for information divergence and related measures of discrimination
Inequalities which connect information divergence with other measures of discrimination or distance between probability distributions are used in information theory and its applications to mathematical statistics, ergodic theory and other scientific fields. We suggest new inequalities of this type, often based on underlying identities. As a consequence we obtain certain improvements of the well...
متن کاملEstimation of Count Data using Bivariate Negative Binomial Regression Models
Abstract Negative binomial regression model (NBR) is a popular approach for modeling overdispersed count data with covariates. Several parameterizations have been performed for NBR, and the two well-known models, negative binomial-1 regression model (NBR-1) and negative binomial-2 regression model (NBR-2), have been applied. Another parameterization of NBR is negative binomial-P regression mode...
متن کاملDependence Measures in Bivariate Gamma Frailty Models
Dependence Measures in Bivariate Gamma Frailty Models Bivariate duration data frequently arise in economics, biostatistics and other areas. In “bivariate frailty models”, dependence between the frailties (i.e., unobserved determinants) induces dependence between the durations. Using notions of quadrant dependence, we study restrictions that this imposes on the implied dependence of the duration...
