Approximate Bayesian computation with functional statistics [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2013
Functional statistics are commonly used to characterize spatial patterns in general and spatial genetic structures in population genetics in particular. Such functional statistics also enable the estimation of parameters of spatially explicit (and genetic) models.

Computation of Kullback–Leibler Divergence in Bayesian Networks

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Kullback–Leibler divergence KL(p,q) is the standard measure of error when we have a true probability distribution p which is approximate with probability distribution q.

Exact Inference with Approximate Computation for Differentially Private Data via Perturbations

open access: yesThe Journal of Privacy and Confidentiality, 2022
This paper discusses how two classes of approximate computation algorithms can be adapted, in a modular fashion, to achieve exact statistical inference from differentially private data products.

Asymptotic properties of approximate Bayesian computation [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrika, 2018
Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is becoming an accepted tool for statistical analysis in models with intractable likelihoods. With the initial focus being primarily on the practical import of ABC, exploration of its formal statistical properties has begun to attract more attention.

Automating approximate Bayesian computation by local linear regression

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2009
Background In several biological contexts, parameter inference often relies on computationally-intensive techniques. "Approximate Bayesian Computation", or ABC, methods based on summary statistics have become increasingly popular.

On the Asymptotic Efficiency of Approximate Bayesian Computation Estimators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Many statistical applications involve models for which it is difficult to evaluate the likelihood, but from which it is relatively easy to sample. Approximate Bayesian computation is a likelihood-free method for implementing Bayesian inference in such ...

Approximate Bayesian Computation in Population Genetics [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2002
AbstractWe propose a new method for approximate Bayesian statistical inference on the basis of summary statistics. The method is suited to complex problems that arise in population genetics, extending ideas developed in this setting by earlier authors.

Learning Functions and Approximate Bayesian Computation Design: ABCD

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
A general approach to Bayesian learning revisits some classical results, which study which functionals on a prior distribution are expected to increase, in a preposterior sense.
