Conditional independence and predictive copula

open access: yes4 open, 2022
In this paper, we address the concept of conditional independence between two random variables X and Y given the entity Θ. We identify the impact of conditional independence on the analytic form of the predictive 2-copula between X and Y.

Conditional Independence by Typing [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems, 2021
A central goal of probabilistic programming languages (PPLs) is to separate modelling from inference. However, this goal is hard to achieve in practice. Users are often forced to re-write their models to improve efficiency of inference or meet restrictions imposed by the PPL.

Conditional Sure Independence Screening [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Statistical Association, 2016
Independence screening is a powerful method for variable selection for `Big Data' when the number of variables is massive. Commonly used independence screening methods are based on marginal correlations or variations of it. In many applications, researchers often have some prior knowledge that a certain set of variables is related to the response.

Describing Conditional Independence Statements Using Undirected Graphs

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
This paper investigates the capability of undirected graphs (UGs) to represent a set of Conditional Independence (CI) statements derived from a given probability distribution of a random vector. While it is established that certain axioms can govern this

Bayesian test of independence and conditional independence of two ordinal variables [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2015
For analysis of contingency tables with large sample size, classical approaches using approximate methods have high power. However, when the sample size is small or some cells have frequencies less than 5, classical approaches are so conservative.

Kernel-Based Independence Tests for Causal Structure Learning on Functional Data

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Measurements of systems taken along a continuous functional dimension, such as time or space, are ubiquitous in many fields, from the physical and biological sciences to economics and engineering.

On Independence Neutrosophic Random Variables [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems, 2021
In this article we study independence neutrosophic random variables and conditioned expectation, we prove that conditional variance is equal to neutrosophic conditional variance.

Floating search and conditional independence testing for causal feature selection [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2021
The curse of dimensionality and over-fitting problems are usually associated with high-dimensional data. Feature selection is one method that can overcome these problems.
