Observable Implications of Unobservable Variables∗
Example 1.1 (Statistics) Charlie hands an urn containing one ball to Ann and another urn containing one ball to Bob. Ann and Bob are then allowed to look in their respective urns to see the color of the ball inside–White or Black. Charlie remembers that he put the same color ball in both urns, but cannot remember which color that was. Let the sets of possible outcomes for Ann and Bob be Xa = {W...
متن کاملInferring Population Size History from Large Samples of Genome-Wide Molecular Data - An Approximate Bayesian Computation Approach.
Inferring the ancestral dynamics of effective population size is a long-standing question in population genetics, which can now be tackled much more accurately thanks to the massive genomic data available in many species. Several promising methods that take advantage of whole-genome sequences have been recently developed in this context. However, they can only be applied to rather small samples...
متن کاملInferring unobservable learning variables from studentsâ•Ž help seeking behavior
Results of an evaluation of students’ attitudes and their relationship to student behaviors within a tutoring system are presented. Starting from a correlation analysis that integrates survey-collected student attitudes, learning variables, and behaviors while using the tutor, we constructed a Bayesian Network that infers attitudes and perceptions towards help and the tutoring system.
متن کاملInferring Unobservable Learning Variables from Students' Help Seeking Behavior
Student log files can be used to infer students’ attitudes that affect learning. Starting from a correlation analysis that integrates survey-collected student attitudes with student behaviors while using the tutor, we constructed a Bayesian Network that infers students attitudes and perceptions of the system.
متن کاملInferring Past Effective Population Size from Distributions of Coalescent Times
Inferring and understanding changes in effective population size over time is a major challenge for population genetics. Here we investigate some theoretical properties of random-mating populations with varying size over time. In particular, we present an exact solution to compute the population size as a function of time, [Formula: see text], based on distributions of coalescent times of sampl...
