On the Gaussian Approximation to Bayesian Posterior Distributions [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics and Statistics, 2021
The present article derives the minimal number $N$ of observations needed to consider a Bayesian posterior distribution as Gaussian. Two examples are presented. Within one of them, a chi-squared distribution, the observable $x$ as well as the parameter $ξ$ are defined all over the real axis, in the other one, the binomial distribution, the observable ...

Large-Sample Asymptotic Approximations for the Sampling and Posterior Distributions of Differential Entropy for Multivariate Normal Distributions

open access: yesEntropy, 2011
In the present paper, we propose a large sample asymptotic approximation for the sampling and posterior distributions of differential entropy when the sample is composed of independent and identically distributed realization of a multivariate normal ...

A brief look into Bayesian statistics in cardiology data analysis

open access: yesREC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2022
Bayesian statistics assesses probabilistically all sources of uncertainty involved in a statistical study and uses Bayes’ theorem to sequentially update the information generated in the different phases of the study.

Identifying model violations under the multispecies coalescent model using P2C2M.SNAPP [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Phylogenetic estimation under the multispecies coalescent model (MSCM) assumes all incongruence among loci is caused by incomplete lineage sorting. Therefore, applying the MSCM to datasets that contain incongruence that is caused by other processes, such

Bayesian Approach for estimating the unknown Scale parameter of Erlang Distribution Based on General Entropy Loss Function

open access: yesIbn Al-Haitham Journal for Pure and Applied Sciences, 2023
We are used Bayes estimators for unknown scale parameter  when shape Parameter  is known of Erlang distribution. Assuming different informative priors for unknown scale  parameter.

Voronoi tessellation‐based regionalised segmentation for colour texture image

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2016
This study presents a region‐based algorithm for segmenting colour texture image, which uses Voronoi tessellation for partitioning the domain of the image and Markov random field (MRF) for modelling colour texture.

AN APPLICATION OF THE BAYESIAN POISSON REGRESSION IN MODELLING ROOMMATE CONFLICT AMONG UNIVERSITY OF CAPE COAST STUDENTS

open access: yesRussian Journal of Agricultural and Socio-Economic Sciences, 2021
This paper introduces Bayesian analysis and demonstrates its application to parameter estimation of the Poisson regression via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm using roommate conflict data.

Martingale posterior distributions

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2023
AbstractThe prior distribution is the usual starting point for Bayesian uncertainty. In this paper, we present a different perspective that focuses on missing observations as the source of statistical uncertainty, with the parameter of interest being known precisely given the entire population.

On the Posterior Distribution of the Correlation Coefficient [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Statistical Journal, 1974
The purpose of this note is to give a better approximation to the posterior distribution of the correlation coefficient of a bivariate normal population for moderately large values of sample size.
