Effects of in-class variation and student rank on the probability of withdrawal : cross-section and time-series analysis for UK university students [PDF]
, 2002 From individual-level data for nine entire cohorts of undergraduate students in UK universities, we estimate the probability that an individual will drop out of university during their first-year.

Development of a Bayesian Estimator for Audio-Visual Integration: A Neurocomputational Study
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017 The brain integrates information from different sensory modalities to generate a coherent and accurate percept of external events. Several experimental studies suggest that this integration follows the principle of Bayesian estimate.

Some results of classification problem by Bayesian method and application in credit operation
Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2018 This study proposes some results in classifying by Bayesian method. There are upper and lower bounds of the Bayes error as well as its determination in case of one dimension and multi-dimensions.

Approximation of improper priors [PDF]
, 2016 We propose a convergence mode for positive Radon measures which allows a sequence of probability measures to have an improper limiting measure. We define a sequence of vague priors as a sequence of probability measures that converges to an improper prior.

Bayesian analysis for the Lomax model using noninformative priors
Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2023 The Lomax distribution is an important member in the distribution family. In this paper, we systematically develop an objective Bayesian analysis of data from a Lomax distribution. Noninformative priors, including probability matching priors, the maximal

Robust Transport over Networks [PDF]
, 2017 We consider transportation over a strongly connected, directed graph. The scheduling amounts to selecting transition probabilities for a discrete-time Markov evolution which is designed to be consistent with initial and final marginal constraints on mass

Learn and Tell: Learning Priors for Image Caption Generation
Applied Sciences, 2020 In this work, we propose a novel priors-based attention neural network (PANN) for image captioning, which aims at incorporating two kinds of priors, i.e., the probabilities being mentioned for local region proposals (PBM priors) and part-of-speech clues ...

Maximizing the probability of attaining a target prior to extinction
, 2009 We present a dynamic programming-based solution to the problem of maximizing the probability of attaining a target set before hitting a cemetery set for a discrete-time Markov control process.
