Illustrating empirical Bayes methods [PDF]
Abstract Empirical Bayes methods have found increasing use in statistical analyses. These methods allow the modelling of complicated systems and provide a mechanism for obtaining parameter estimates. They are based on Bayesian models, but employ alternate estimation techniques.

Evaluation of elicitation methods to quantify Bayes linear models [PDF]
The Bayes linear methodology allows decision makers to express their subjective beliefs and adjust these beliefs as observations are made. It is similar in spirit to probabilistic Bayesian approaches, but differs as it uses expectation as its primitive ...

Bayes linear kinematics in the analysis of failure rates and failure time distributions [PDF]
Collections of related Poisson or binomial counts arise, for example, from a number of different failures in similar machines or neighbouring time periods.

Empirical Bayes methodology for estimating equipment failure rates with application to power generation plants [PDF]
Many reliability databases pool event data for equipment across different plants. Pooling may occur both within and between organizations with the intention of sharing data across common items within similar operating environments to provide better ...

Sparse Bayesian learning-based mainlobe blanket jamming suppression algorithm
The suppression of mainlobe jamming (MLJ) is a hard task and an open problem in the electronic counter-countermeasures field. In this article, a sparse Bayesian learning (SBL)-based mainlobe blanket jamming suppression algorithm is proposed for solving ...

Feature selection approach using ensemble learning for network anomaly detection
Feature selection is essential for prioritising important attributes in data to improve prediction quality in machine learning algorithms. As different selection techniques identify different feature sets, relying on a single method may result in risky ...
