Applying Bayes linear methods to support reliability procurement decisions [PDF]
, 2008 Bayesian methods are common in reliability and risk assessment, however, such methods often demand a large amount of specification and can be computationally intensive.

On the Consistency of Bayes Estimates
The Annals of Statistics, 1986 The authors of this special invited paper give the following summary: ''We discuss frequency properties of Bayes rules, paying special attention to consistency. Some new and fairly natural counterexamples are given, involving nonparametric estimates of location.

Interval Estimation Naïve Bayes [PDF]
, 2003 Recent work in supervised learning has shown that a surprisingly simple Bayesian classifier called naïve Bayes is competitive with state of the art classifiers. This simple approach stands from assumptions of conditional independence among features given the class.

On Consistency of the Bayes Estimator of the Density
Mathematics, 2022 Under mild conditions, strong consistency of the Bayes estimator of the density is proved. Moreover, the Bayes risk (for some common loss functions) of the Bayes estimator of the density (i.e., the posterior predictive density) goes to zero as the sample

An improved Bayes empirical Bayes estimator [PDF]
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2003 Consider an experiment yielding an observable random quantity X whose distribution Fθ depends on a parameter θ with θ being distributed according to some distribution G0. We study the Bayesian estimation problem of θ under squared error loss function based on X, as well as some additional data available from other similar experiments according to an ...

Empirical Bayes and Full Bayes for Signal Estimation
CoRR, 2014 We consider signals that follow a parametric distribution where the parameter values are unknown. To estimate such signals from noisy measurements in scalar channels, we study the empirical performance of an empirical Bayes (EB) approach and a full Bayes (FB) approach.

Land Allocation in the Presence of Estimation Risk
Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1995 Estimation risk occurs when parameters relevant for decision making are uncertain. Bayes' criterion is consistent with expected-utility maximization in the presence of estimation risk.

On a design consistency property of hierarchical Bayes estimators in finite population samplings. [PDF]
, 2007 We obtain a limit of a hierarchical Bayes estimator of a finite population mean when the sample size is large. The limit is in the sense of ordinary calculus, where the sample observations are treated as fixed quantities. Our result suggests a simple way

A Comparison Between the Bayesian and the Classical Estimators of Weibull Distribution
Journal of Kufa for Mathematics and Computer, 2013 In this paper ,we study estimation of two parameters of Weibull distribution .Methods of estimation used are maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and Bayes. We compared the numerical results by simulation in MATLAB program.
