A collaboration including the University of Oxford, University of British Columbia, Intel, New York University, CERN, and the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center is working to make it ...
Bayesian inference provides a robust framework for combining prior knowledge with new evidence to update beliefs about uncertain quantities. In the context of statistical inverse problems, this ...
In my practice, I find most people involved with advanced analytics, such as predictive, data science, and ML, are familiar with the name Bayes, and can even reproduce the simple theorem below. Still, ...
Nate Silver, baseball statistician turned political analyst, gained a lot of attention during the 2012 United States elections when he successfully predicted the outcome of the presidential vote in ...
This paper concerns the use of empirical Bayes methods to improve the efficiency of a parameter of interest, θ, in the presence of many nuisance parameters, {φi}, one from each data stratum. A class ...
We present a tractable class of nonregular continuous statistical models where 1) likelihoods have multiple singularities and ordinary maximum likelihood is intrinsically unavailable, but 2) Bayes ...
