Marginal Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Item Response Models in R [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2007
Item response theory (IRT) models are a class of statistical models used by researchers to describe the response behaviors of individuals to a set of categorically scored items.

Marginal Likelihood Estimation via Power Posteriors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2008
SummaryModel choice plays an increasingly important role in statistics. From a Bayesian perspective a crucial goal is to compute the marginal likelihood of the data for a given model. However, this is typically a difficult task since it amounts to integrating over all model parameters.

Bayesian Model Selection, the Marginal Likelihood, and Generalization [PDF]

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
How do we compare between hypotheses that are entirely consistent with observations? The marginal likelihood (aka Bayesian evidence), which represents the probability of generating our observations from a prior, provides a distinctive approach to this foundational question, automatically encoding Occam's razor.

Targeted Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Dynamic and Static Longitudinal Marginal Structural Working Models [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2014
This paper describes a targeted maximum likelihood estimator (TMLE) for the parameters of longitudinal static and dynamic marginal structural models. We consider a longitudinal data structure consisting of baseline covariates, time-dependent intervention

Adaptive MCMC for Bayesian Variable Selection in Generalised Linear Models and Survival Models

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Developing an efficient computational scheme for high-dimensional Bayesian variable selection in generalised linear models and survival models has always been a challenging problem due to the absence of closed-form solutions to the marginal likelihood ...

Bayesian model evidence as a practical alternative to deviance information criterion [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
While model evidence is considered by Bayesian statisticians as a gold standard for model selection (the ratio in model evidence between two models giving the Bayes factor), its calculation is often viewed as too computationally demanding for many ...

A Hybrid Approximation to the Marginal Likelihood

open access: yes, 2021
Computing the marginal likelihood or evidence is one of the core challenges in Bayesian analysis. While there are many established methods for estimating this quantity, they predominantly rely on using a large number of posterior samples obtained from a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm.
