Empirical Bayes factors for common hypothesis tests.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Bayes factors for composite hypotheses have difficulty in encoding vague prior knowledge, as improper priors cannot be used and objective priors may be subjectively unreasonable.

Bayesian Reanalysis of Statistically Nonsignificant Outcomes in Plastic Surgery Clinical Trials

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Background:. Statistically nonsignificant randomized clinical trial (RCT) results are challenging to interpret, as they are unable to prove the absence of a difference between treatment groups.

Bayes factor between Student t and Gaussian mixed models within an animal breeding context

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2008
The implementation of Student t mixed models in animal breeding has been suggested as a useful statistical tool to effectively mute the impact of preferential treatment or other sources of outliers in field data. Nevertheless, these additional sources of

Simpson’s Paradox and the Bayes Factor

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1998
Summary A counter-example presented by Lindley to Aitkin’s posterior Bayes factor is examined. The paradoxical feature of the counter-example is found to be a simple case of Simpson’s paradox.

Bayes, Neyman and Neyman-Bayes Inference for Queueing Systems [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we will use the Bayesian inference for the parameters that appear in the queueing systems. We will estimate these parameters and we will build confidence intervals and significance tests for them, considering the parameters of the ...

From Empirical Bayes to Full Bayes: Methods for Analyzubg Traffic Safey Data, October 25, 2004 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Traffic safety engineers are among the early adopters of Bayesian statistical tools for analyzing crash data. As in many other areas of application, empirical Bayes methods were their first choice, perhaps because they represent an intuitively ...

Diagnosing the Misuse of the Bayes Factor in Applied Research

open access: yesAdvances in Methods and Practices in Psychological Science
Hypothesis testing is often used for inference in the social sciences. In particular, null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) and its p value have been ubiquitous in published research for decades. Much more recently, null hypothesis Bayesian testing

Introduction to the Bayes factor: A Shiny/R app

open access: yesTeaching Statistics
AbstractMost researchers receive formal training in frequentist statistics during their undergraduate studies. In particular, hypothesis testing is usually rooted on the null hypothesis significance testing paradigm and its p‐value. Null hypothesis Bayesian testing and its so‐called Bayes factor are now becoming increasingly popular. Although the Bayes

Sequential Bayesian Tests and the Hypothesis of independent or naive Bayes

open access: yesRevista de la Facultad de Ciencias, 2018
Quite frequently diagnosis is not final with one medical test but a sequence of tests are applied. How the information given by one test is going to be combined with the information conveyed by a second test? Can we ”add up” the information of the medical
