Sensitivity Analysis for Bayesian Hierarchical Models

Analysis of Hierarchical Bayesian Models for Large Space Time Data of the Housing Prices in Tehran

Housing price data is correlated to their location in different neighborhoods and their correlation is type of spatial (location). The price of housing is varius in different months, so they also have a time correlation. Spatio-temporal models are used to analyze this type of the data. An important purpose of reviewing this type of the data is to fit a suitable model for the spatial-temporal an...

ANN-DEA Integrated Approach for Sensitivity Analysis in Efficiency Models

Here, we examine the capability of artificial neural networks (ANNs) in sensitivity analysis of the parameters of efficiency analysis model, namely data envelopment analysis (DEA). We are mainly interested to observe the required change of a group of parameters when another group goes under a managerial change, maintaining the score of the efficiency. In other words, this methodology provides a...

Bayesian Hierarchical Models for Serial Analysis of Gene Expression

In the Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) analysis, the statistical procedures have been performed after aggregation of observations from the various libraries for the same class. Most studies have not accounted for the within-class variability. The identification of the differentially expressed genes based on the class separation has not been easy because of heteroscedasticity of librar...

Bayesian multivariate hierarchical transformation models for ROC analysis.

A Bayesian multivariate hierarchical transformation model (BMHTM) is developed for receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis based on clustered continuous diagnostic outcome data with covariates. Two special features of this model are that it incorporates non-linear monotone transformations of the outcomes and that multiple correlated outcomes may be analysed. The mean, variance, a...
