Bayesian Model Averaging for Linear Regression Models
We consider the problem of accounting for model uncertainty in linear regression models. Conditioning on a single selected model ignores model uncertainty, and thus leads to the underestimation of uncertainty when making inferences about quantities of interest. A Bayesian solution to this problem involves averaging over all possible models (i.e., combinations of predictors) when making inferenc...
متن کاملBayesian Adaptive Sampling for Variable Selection and Model Averaging
For the problem of model choice in linear regression, we introduce a Bayesian adaptive sampling algorithm (BAS), that samples models without replacement from the space of models. For problems that permit enumeration of all models BAS is guaranteed to enumerate the model space in 2p iterations where p is the number of potential variables under consideration. For larger problems where sampling is...
متن کاملBayesian Model Averaging in the Instrumental Variable Regression Model
This paper considers the instrumental variable regression model when there is uncertainty about the set of instruments, exogeneity restrictions, the validity of identifying restrictions and the set of exogenous regressors. This uncertainty can result in a huge number of models. To avoid statistical problems associated with standard model selection procedures, we develop a reversible jump Markov...
متن کاملBayesian linear regression and variable selection for spectroscopic calibration.
This paper presents a Bayesian approach to the development of spectroscopic calibration models. By formulating the linear regression in a probabilistic framework, a Bayesian linear regression model is derived, and a specific optimization method, i.e. Bayesian evidence approximation, is utilized to estimate the model "hyper-parameters". The relation of the proposed approach to the calibration mo...
متن کاملVariable selection and Bayesian model averaging in case-control studies.
Covariate and confounder selection in case-control studies is often carried out using a statistical variable selection method, such as a two-step method or a stepwise method in logistic regression. Inference is then carried out conditionally on the selected model, but this ignores the model uncertainty implicit in the variable selection process, and so may underestimate uncertainty about relati...
