Posterior probability intervals for wavelet thresholding
We use cumulants to derive Bayesian credible intervals for wavelet regression estimates. The first four cumulants of the posterior distribution of the estimates are expressed in terms of the observed data and integer powers of the mother wavelet functions. These powers are closely approximated by linear combinations of wavelet scaling functions at an appropriate finer scale. Hence, a suitable m...
متن کاملSequential Updating Conditional Probability in Bayesian Networks by Posterior Probability
The Bayesian network is a powerful knowledge representation formalism; it is also capable of improving its precision through experience. Spiegelhalter et al. [1989] proposed a procedure for sequential updating forward conditional probabilities (FCP) in Bayesian networks of diameter 1 with a single parent node. The procedure assumes certainty for each diagnosis which is not practical for many ap...
متن کاملEstimating the Posterior Probability of Bayesian Network
Random graphs are used to model the qualitative structure of Bayesian networks. The arc probabilities are determined by the probability that the amount of mutual information the neighbors provide to a node is greater than a given eeect size. A 2 approximation for the probability density function of mutual information in proposed. A large number of network structures in which the arc probabiliti...
متن کاملOn posterior distribution of Bayesian wavelet thresholding
We investigate the posterior rate of convergence for wavelet shrinkage using a Bayesian approach in general Besov spaces. Instead of studying the Bayesian estimator related to a particular loss function, we focus on the posterior distribution itself from a nonparametric Bayesian asymptotics point of view and study its rate of convergence. We obtain the same rate as in Abramovich et al. (2004) w...
متن کاملIncreased robustness of Bayesian networks through probability intervals
We present an extension of Bayesian networks to probability intervals, aiming at a more realistic and flexible modeling of applications with uncertain and imprecise knowledge. Within the logical framework of causal programs we provide a modeltheoretic foundation for a formal treatment of consistency and of logical consequences. A set of local inference rules is developed, which is proved to be ...
