Estimating Bayes factors via thermodynamic integration and population MCMC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A Bayesian approach to model comparison based on the integrated or marginal likelihood is considered, and applications to linear regression models and nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) models are used as the setting in which to elucidate and

A point on discrete versus continuous state-space Markov chains

open access: yesDependence Modeling
This article investigates the effects of discrete marginal distributions on copula-based Markov chains. We establish results on mixing properties and parameter estimation for a copula-based Markov chain model with Bernoulli(pp) marginal distributions ...

Retrieval of Experiments by Efficient Estimation of Marginal Likelihood

open access: yesCoRR, 2014
We study the task of retrieving relevant experiments given a query experiment. By experiment, we mean a collection of measurements from a set of `covariates' and the associated `outcomes'. While similar experiments can be retrieved by comparing available `annotations', this approach ignores the valuable information available in the measurements ...

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe

Parameter Estimation in Semi-Linear Models Using a Maximal Invariant Likelihood Function [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimation of semi-linear regression models. Using invariance arguments, Bhowmik and King (2001) have derived the probability density functions of the maximal invariant statistic for the nonlinear component of ...

Marginal Likelihood Based Tests of Regression Disturbances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper presents general formulae for the likelihood ratio (LR), Wald (W), Lagrange multiplier (LM) and asymptotic locally most mean powerful (ALMMP) tests of linear regression disturbances using marginal likelihood methods. These tests can be derived

Distribution of the LR criterion Up,m,n as a marginal distribution of a generalized Dirichlet model

open access: yesStatistica, 2013
The density of the likelihood ratio criterion Up,m,n is expressed in terms of a marginal density of a generalized Dirichlet model having a specific set of parameters.

Reperfusion‐Dependent Outcomes After Endovascular Thrombectomy Stratified by NIHSS‐ASPECTS Clinical‐Core Mismatch

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This analysis evaluates the effect of successful reperfusion on functional outcomes after MT, stratified by admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) as surrogates for clinical‐core mismatch, using multicenter registry data.

Pseudo-marginal algorithms with multiple CPUs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The emergence of pseudo-marginal algorithms has led to improved computational efficiency for dealing with complex Bayesian models with latent variables.

Robustness of marginal maximum likelihood estimation in the Rasch model [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Simulation studies examined the effect of misspecification of the latent ability (θ) distribution on the accuracy and efficiency of marginal maximum likelihood (MML) item parameter estimates and on MML statistics to test sufficiency and conditional ...
