Hierarchical Bayesian space-time interpolation versus spatio-temporal BME approach [PDF]
The restrictions of the analysis of natural processes which are observed at any point in space or time to a purely spatial or purely temporal domain may cause loss of information and larger prediction errors.

Hierarchic Bayesian models for kernel learning [PDF]
The integration of diverse forms of informative data by learning an optimal combination of base kernels in classification or regression problems can provide enhanced performance when compared to that obtained from any single data source. We present a Bayesian hierarchical model which enables kernel learning and present effective variational Bayes ...

Bayesian hierarchical modeling of size spectra
Abstract A fundamental pattern in ecology is that smaller organisms are more abundant than larger organisms. This pattern is known as the individual size distribution (ISD), which is the frequency of all individual body sizes in an ecosystem.

Hierarchical Bayesian modeling of intertemporal choice [PDF]
There is a growing interest in studying individual differences in choices that involve trading off reward amount and delay to delivery because such choices have been linked to involvement in risky behaviors, such as substance abuse.

Bayesian Hierarchical Models for Counterfactual Estimation
Counterfactual explanations utilize feature perturbations to analyze the outcome of an original decision and recommend an actionable recourse. We argue that it is beneficial to provide several alternative explanations rather than a single point solution and propose a probabilistic paradigm to estimate a diverse set of counterfactuals.

Bayesian designs for hierarchical linear models [PDF]
Summary: Two Bayesian optimal design criteria for hierarchical linear models are discussed: the \(\psi_\beta\) criterion for the estimation of individual-level parameters \(\beta\), and the \(\psi_\theta\) criterion for the estimation of hyperparameters \(\mathbf \theta\).

Nested Hierarchical Dirichlet Processes [PDF]
We develop a nested hierarchical Dirichlet process (nHDP) for hierarchical topic modeling. The nHDP is a generalization of the nested Chinese restaurant process (nCRP) that allows each word to follow its own path to a topic node according to a document ...

Bayesian hierarchical model for protein identifications [PDF]
In proteomics, identification of proteins from complex mixtures of proteins extracted from biological samples is an important problem. Among the experimental technologies, mass spectrometry (MS) is the most popular one. Protein identification from MS data typically relies on a ‘two-step’ procedure of identifying the peptide first followed by the ...

Towards a mathematical theory of cortical micro-circuits. [PDF]
The theoretical setting of hierarchical Bayesian inference is gaining acceptance as a framework for understanding cortical computation. In this paper, we describe how Bayesian belief propagation in a spatio-temporal hierarchical model, called ...

Modeling and visualizing uncertainty in gene expression clusters using Dirichlet process mixtures [PDF]
Although the use of clustering methods has rapidly become one of the standard computational approaches in the literature of microarray gene expression data, little attention has been paid to uncertainty in the results obtained. Dirichlet process mixture (
