Local computation of influence propagation through Bayes linear belief networksIn recent years there has been interest in the theory of local computation over probabilistic Bayesian graphical models. In this paper, local computation over Bayes linear belief networks is shown to…Darren J Wilkinson·Sep 2, 1996SaveLearn
Bayes linear variance adjustment for time seriesThis paper exhibits quadratic products of linear combinations of observables which identify the covariance structure underlying the univariate locally linear time series dynamic linear model. The…Darren J Wilkinson·Apr 2, 1996SaveLearn
Toward general solutions to time-series problems: Notes on obstacles and noiseComputational difficulties in the general application of Bretthorsts formalism to time-series problems, posed by the large number of possible models and the use of models with nonorthogonal…Iftah Gideoni·Jan 7, 1996SaveLearn
Bayes linear covariance matrix adjustmentIn this thesis, a Bayes linear methodology for the adjustment of covariance matrices is presented and discussed. A geometric framework for quantifying uncertainties about covariance matrices is set…Darren J Wilkinson·Dec 4, 1995SaveLearn
Bayesian Method of Moments (BMOM) Analysis of Mean and Regression ModelsA Bayesian method of moments/instrumental variable (BMOM/IV) approach is developed and applied in the analysis of the important mean and multiple regression models. Given a single set of data, it is…Arnold Zellner·Nov 30, 1995SaveLearn
Bayesian Variable Selection with Related PredictorsIn data sets with many predictors, algorithms for identifying a good subset of predictors are often used. Most such algorithms do not account for any relationships between predictors. For example,…Hugh Chipman·Oct 30, 1995SaveLearn
Suppressing Random Walks in Markov Chain Monte Carlo Using Ordered OverrelaxationMarkov chain Monte Carlo methods such as Gibbs sampling and simple forms of the Metropolis algorithm typically move about the distribution being sampled via a random walk. For the complex,…R. M. Neal·Jun 22, 1995SaveLearn
Minimal information in velocity spaceJaynes' transformation group principle is used to derive the objective prior for the velocity of a non-zero rest-mass particle. In the case of classical mechanics, invariance under the classical…Guillaume Evrard·Jun 14, 1995SaveLearn
Bayes linear covariance matrix adjustment for multivariate dynamic linear modelsA methodology is developed for the adjustment of the covariance matrices underlying a multivariate constant time series dynamic linear model. The covariance matrices are embedded in a…Darren J Wilkinson, Michael Goldstein·Jun 5, 1995SaveLearn
Bayes linear adjustment for variance matricesWe examine the problem of covariance belief revision using a geometric approach. We exhibit an inner-product space where covariance matrices live naturally --- a space of random real symmetric…Darren J Wilkinson, Michael Goldstein·Jun 4, 1995SaveLearn
Confidence Intervals from One One ObservationRobert Machol's surprising result, that from a single observation it is possible to have finite length confidence intervals for the parameters of location-scale models, is re-produced and…Carlos C. Rodriguez·Apr 12, 1995SaveLearn
