ANALISIS SURVIVAL UNTUK PARAMETER SKALA DARI DISTRIBUSI WEIBULL MENGGUNAKAN MLE DAN METODE BAYESIAN
Modeling of survival data is necessary and important to do. Survival data is generally assumed to have a Weibull distribution. Bayesian approach has been implemented to estimate the parameter in such this survival analysis. This study purposes to compare

A channel-based perspective on conjugate priors [PDF]
AbstractA desired closure property in Bayesian probability is that an updated posterior distribution be in the same class of distributions – say Gaussians – as the prior distribution. When the updating takes place via a statistical model, one calls the class of prior distributions the ‘conjugate priors’ of the model.

Mechanism of retrotransfer in conjugation: prior transfer of the conjugative plasmid is required [PDF]
Bacterial conjugation normally involves the unidirectional transfer of DNA from donor to recipient. Occasionally, conjugation results in the transfer of DNA from recipient to donor, a phenomenon known as retrotransfer. Two distinct models have been generally considered for the mechanism of retrotransfer.

Enriched standard conjugate priors and the right invariant prior for Wishart distributions
The prediction of the variance-covariance matrix of the multivariate normal distribution is important in the multivariate analysis. We investigated Bayesian predictive distributions for Wishart distributions under the Kullback-Leibler divergence. The conditional reducibility of the family of Wishart distributions enables us to decompose the risk of a ...

Vaccination in Kidney Transplant Candidates
Background:. Kidney transplant (KT) candidates have historically low immunization rates against recommended vaccines. A retrospective single-center study of contemporary KT candidates was conducted to assess vaccination rates and vaccine uptake. Methods:.

Gradient conjugate priors and multi-layer neural networks [PDF]
The paper deals with learning probability distributions of observed data by artificial neural networks. We suggest a so-called gradient conjugate prior (GCP) update appropriate for neural networks, which is a modification of the classical Bayesian update for conjugate priors. We establish a connection between the gradient conjugate prior update and the

Mathematical modelling long-term effects of replacing Prevnar7 with Prevnar13 on invasive pneumococcal diseases in England and Wales. [PDF]
England and Wales recently replaced the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) with its 13-valent equivalent (PCV13), partly based on projections from mathematical models of the long-term impact of such a switch compared to ceasing pneumococcal ...

Approximating Priors by Mixtures of Natural Conjugate Priors
SUMMARY The purpose of this paper is twofold: First, to show that a natural enlargement of the class of natural conjugate priors–namely, mixtures of natural conjugate priors–also leads to mathematically tractable solutions. Secondly, to show that this enlargement is “adequate” in that any prior may be arbitrarily closely approximated by ...
