Variational Bayesian mixed-effects inference for classification studies
Multivariate classification algorithms are powerful tools for predicting cognitive or pathophysiological states from neuroimaging data. Assessing the utility of a classifier in application domains such as cognitive neuroscience, brain-computer interfaces, or clinical diagnostics necessitates inference on classification performance at more than one level, i.e., both in individual subjects and in...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملVariational Bayesian Inference Note
When we use EM that uses maximum likelihood as a criterion to select the number of Gaussians, we face the problem of that as the complexity of model increases, the training likihood strictly improves, which means the larger number of Gaussians, the better fit of the training data (see Figure 1). We can see from this example, the traning log-likelihood can even become positive when some clusters...
متن کاملVariational Inference for Nonparametric Bayesian Quantile Regression
Quantile regression deals with the problem of computing robust estimators when the conditional mean and standard deviation of the predicted function are inadequate to capture its variability. The technique has an extensive list of applications, including health sciences, ecology and finance. In this work we present a nonparametric method of inferring quantiles and derive a novel Variational Bay...
متن کاملCollapsed Variational Bayesian Inference for PCFGs
This paper presents a collapsed variational Bayesian inference algorithm for PCFGs that has the advantages of two dominant Bayesian training algorithms for PCFGs, namely variational Bayesian inference and Markov chain Monte Carlo. In three kinds of experiments, we illustrate that our algorithm achieves close performance to the Hastings sampling algorithm while using an order of magnitude less t...
