Construction of Nonparametric Bayesian Models from Parametric Bayes Equations
We consider the general problem of constructing nonparametric Bayesian models on infinite-dimensional random objects, such as functions, infinite graphs or infinite permutations. The problem has generated much interest in machine learning, where it is treated heuristically, but has not been studied in full generality in nonparametric Bayesian statistics, which tends to focus on models over prob...
متن کاملNonparametric Identification of Pharmacokinetic Population Models via Gaussian Processes
Population models are used to describe the behaviour of different subjects belonging to a population and play an important role in drug pharmacokinetics. A nonparametric identification scheme is proposed in which both the average population response and the individual ones are modelled as Gaussian stochastic processes. Assuming that the average curve is an integrated Wiener process, it is shown...

متن کاملBayesian rv1ethods for Partial Stochastic Orderings
We discuss two methods of making nonparametric Bayesian inference on probability measures subject to a partial stochastic ordering. The first method involves a nonparametric prior for a measure on partially ordered latent observations, the second involves rejection sampling. Computational approaches are discussed for each method, and interpretations of prior and posterior information are discus...
متن کاملApproximate Bayes Linear Smoothers for Continuous Processes
This paper presents two approximations for the problem of Bayes linear estimation of continuous vector-valued stochastic processes. The problem of interpolating time series is treated as a particular application. Expressions for errors of approximations are obtained. In particular, our general conditions for zero error lead to a characterization of a generalized ARC!) process.
