Multiple Imputations Using Sequential Semi and Nonparametric Regressions
Multiple imputation is a general purpose method for analyzing data with missing values. Under this approach the missing set of values is replaced by several plausible sets of missing values to yield completed data sets. Each completed data set is then analyzed separately and the results (estimates, standard errors, test statistics etc) are combined to form a single inference. It is fairly well ...
متن کاملSequential Importance Sampling for Nonparametric Bayes Models: The Next Generation
There are two generations of Gibbs sampling methods for semiparametric models involving the Dirichlet process. The first generation suffered from a severe drawback: the locations of the clusters, or groups of parameters, could essentially become fixed, moving only rarely. Two strategies that have been proposed to create the second generation of Gibbs samplers are integration and appending a sec...
متن کاملNonparametric hierarchical Bayes analysis of binomial data via Bernstein polynomial priors
For binomial data analysis, many methods based on empirical Bayes interpretations have been developed, in which a variance-stabilizing transformation and a normality assumption are usually required. To achieve the greatest model flexibility, we conduct nonparametric Bayesian inference for binomial data and employ a special nonparametric Bayesian prior—the Bernstein–Dirichlet process (BDP)—in th...
متن کاملLearning Gaussian Process Kernels via Hierarchical Bayes
We present a novel method for learning with Gaussian process regression in a hierarchical Bayesian framework. In a first step, kernel matrices on a fixed set of input points are learned from data using a simple and efficient EM algorithm. This step is nonparametric, in that it does not require a parametric form of covariance function. In a second step, kernel functions are fitted to approximate...
