About incoherent inference
In Templeton (2010), the Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) algorithm (see, e.g., Pritchard et al., 1999, Beaumont et al., 2002, Marjoram et al., 2003, Ratmann et al., 2009) is criticised on mathematical and logical grounds: “the [Bayesian] inference is mathematically incorrect and formally illogical”. Since those criticisms turn out to be bearing on Bayesian foundations rather than on the ...
متن کاملInference about genetic correlations.
In polygenic systems genetic correlations and the factors and specific genetic variances from genetic correlation matrices are often interpreted in terms of sets of genes common or specific to variables. While these inferences may indeed be true, a genetic correlation is not always sufficient evidence for the inferences. In some cases two variables with all genes in common can have low genetic ...
متن کاملMultiscale Inference about a Density
We introduce a multiscale test statistic based on local order statistics and spacings that provides simultaneous confidence statements for the existence and location of local increases and decreases of a density or a failure rate. The procedure provides guaranteed finite-sample significance levels, is easy to implement and possesses certain asymptotic optimality and adaptivity properties.
متن کاملDopamine and Inference About Timing
Temporal-difference learning (TD) models explain most responses of primate dopamine neurons in appetitive conditioning. But because existing models are based in the simple formal setting of Markov processes, they do not provide a realistic account of the partial observability of the state of the world, nor of variation in event timing. For instance, the TD model of Montague et al. (1996) mispre...
متن کاملOn Bayesian inference about extinction.
Alroy (1) provides Bayesian estimates of the number of recent extinctions among reptiles and amphibians based on their sighting records. This involved calculating posterior extinction probabilities for individual species. This calculation is only cursorily described. The purpose of this comment is to provide an expression for this posterior probability and to raise two issues with the applicati...
