Operation of the Bayes Inference Engine
نویسنده
چکیده
We have developed a computer application, called the Bayes Inference Engine, to enable us to make inferences about models of a physical object from radiographs taken of it. In the BIE calculational models are represented by a dataflow diagram that can be manipulated by the analyst in a graphical-programming environment. We demonstrate the operation of the BIE in terms of examples of two-dimensional tomographic reconstruction including uncertainty estimation.

Inference for the Proportional Hazards Family under Progressive Type-II Censoring
In this paper, the well-known proportional hazards model which includes several well-known lifetime distributions such as exponential,Pareto, Lomax, Burr type XII, and so on is considered. With both Bayesian and non-Bayesian approaches , we consider the estimation of parameters of interest based on progressively Type-II right censored samples. The Bayes estimates are obtained based on symmetric...
متن کاملInference on Pr(X > Y ) Based on Record Values From the Power Hazard Rate Distribution
In this article, we consider the problem of estimating the stress-strength reliability $Pr (X > Y)$ based on upper record values when $X$ and $Y$ are two independent but not identically distributed random variables from the power hazard rate distribution with common scale parameter $k$. When the parameter $k$ is known, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), the approximate Bayes estimator and ...
متن کاملThe Bayes Inference Engine
We are developing a computer application, called the Bayes Inference Engine, to provide the means to make inferences about models of physical reality within a Bayesian framework. The construction of complex nonlinear models is achieved by a fully object-oriented design. The models are represented by a data-flow diagram that may be manipulated by the analyst through a graphicalprogramming enviro...
متن کاملBayes Estimation for a Simple Step-stress Model with Type-I Censored Data from the Geometric Distribution
This paper focuses on a Bayes inference model for a simple step-stress life test using Type-I censored sample in a discrete set-up. Assuming the failure times at each stress level are geometrically distributed, the Bayes estimation problem of the parameters of interest is investigated in the both of point and interval approaches. To derive the Bayesian point estimators, some various balanced lo...
متن کاملFuzzy Inference System Approach in Deterministic Seismic Hazard, Case Study: Qom Area, Iran
Seismic hazard assessment like many other issues in seismology is a complicated problem, which is due to a variety of parameters affecting the occurrence of an earthquake. Uncertainty, which is a result of vagueness and incompleteness of the data, should be considered in a rational way. Using fuzzy method makes it possible to allow for uncertainties to be considered. Fuzzy inference system,...
