BAT - The Bayesian Analysis Toolkit [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Physics Communications, 2008
We describe the development of a new toolkit for data analysis. The analysis package is based on Bayes' Theorem, and is realized with the use of Markov Chain Monte Carlo. This gives access to the full posterior probability distribution.

Multiscale Bayesian survival analysis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Statistics, 2021
We consider Bayesian nonparametric inference in the right-censoring survival model, where modeling is made at the level of the hazard rate. We derive posterior limiting distributions for linear functionals of the hazard, and then for `many' functionals simultaneously in appropriate multiscale spaces.

Informed Bayesian survival analysis

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2022
AbstractBackgroundWe provide an overview of Bayesian estimation, hypothesis testing, and model-averaging and illustrate how they benefit parametric survival analysis. We contrast the Bayesian framework to the currently dominant frequentist approach and highlight advantages, such as seamless incorporation of historical data, continuous monitoring of ...

Bayesian exploratory factor analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Econometrics, 2014
This paper develops and applies a Bayesian approach to Exploratory Factor Analysis that improves on ad hoc classical approaches. Our framework relies on dedicated factor models and simultaneously determines the number of factors, the allocation of each measurement to a unique factor, and the corresponding factor loadings.

Bayesian cluster analysis

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2023
Bayesian cluster analysis offers substantial benefits over algorithmic approaches by providing not only point estimates but also uncertainty in the clustering structure and patterns within each cluster. An overview of Bayesian cluster analysis is provided, including both model-based and loss-based approaches, along with a discussion on the importance ...

Maximizing information obtained from standardized fire tests using a Bayesian framework

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022
Current practice is mostly focused on prescriptive design approaches where the performance of the structure in case of fire is assessed based on its performance in standardized fire tests.

Bayesian inference towards the resolution of molecular evolution: application to the “Trichoderma harzianum sensu lato” clade

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2004
The Hypocrea lixii/Trichoderma harzianum species aggregate contains a group of taxa (H. lixii /T. harzianum, T. aggressivum, T. tomentosum, T. cerinum, T. velutinum, H. tawa) of which some (e. g. T.

Brief use of a specific gun in a violent game does not affect attitudes towards that gun [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Although much attention has been paid to the question of whether violent video games increase aggressive behaviour, little attention has been paid to how such games might encourage antecedents of gun violence.
