Bayesian Density Estimation and Inference Using

We describe and illustrate Bayesian inference in models for density estimation using mixtures of Dirichlet processes. These models provide natural settings for density estimation, and are exempliied by special cases where data are modelled as a sample from mixtures of normal distributions. EEcient simulation methods are used to approximate various prior, posterior and predictive distributions. ...

Classical and Bayesian Inference in Two Parameter Exponential Distribution with Randomly Censored Data

Abstract. This paper deals with the classical and Bayesian estimation for two parameter exponential distribution having scale and location parameters with randomly censored data. The censoring time is also assumed to follow a two parameter exponential distribution with different scale but same location parameter. The main stress is on the location parameter in this paper. This parameter has not...

Bayesian 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...

Probability density function estimation of laser light scintillation via Bayesian mixtures.

A method for probability density function (PDF) estimation using Bayesian mixtures of weighted gamma distributions, called the Dirichlet process gamma mixture model (DP-GaMM), is presented and applied to the analysis of a laser beam in turbulence. The problem is cast in a Bayesian setting, with the mixture model itself treated as random process. A stick-breaking interpretation of the Dirichlet ...

Dirichlet Process Mixtures of Beta Distributions, with Applications to Density and Intensity Estimation

We propose a class of Bayesian nonparametric mixture models with a Beta distribution providing the mixture kernel and a Dirichlet process prior assigned to the mixing distribution. Motivating applications include density estimation on bounded domains, and inference for non-homogeneous Poisson processes over time. We present the mixture model formulation, discuss prior specification, and develop...
