Bayesian inference with misspecified models
SG Walker - Journal of statistical planning and inference, 2013 - Elsevier
This article reviews Bayesian inference from the perspective that the designated model is
misspecified. This misspecification has implications in interpretation of objects, such as the …

Convergence rates of posterior distributions
We consider the asymptotic behavior of posterior distributions and Bayes estimators for
infinite-dimensional statistical models. We give general results on the rate of convergence of …

Nonparametric Bayesian data analysis
P Müller, FA Quintana - 2004 - projecteuclid.org
We review the current state of nonparametric Bayesian inference. The discussion follows a
list of important statistical inference problems, including density estimation, regression …

Entropies and rates of convergence for maximum likelihood and Bayes estimation for mixtures of normal densities
S Ghosal, AW Van Der Vaart - The Annals of Statistics, 2001 - projecteuclid.org
We study the rates of convergence of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and posterior
distribution in density estimation problems, where the densities are location or location-scale …

Convergence of latent mixing measures in finite and infinite mixture models
XL Nguyen - 2013 - projecteuclid.org
This paper studies convergence behavior of latent mixing measures that arise in finite and
infinite mixture models, using transportation distances (ie, Wasserstein metrics). The …

Rates of convergence of posterior distributions
X Shen, L Wasserman - Annals of Statistics, 2001 - JSTOR
We compute the rate at which the posterior distribution concentrates around the true
parameter value. The spaces we work in are quite general and include infinite dimensional …

Are Gibbs-type priors the most natural generalization of the Dirichlet process?
Discrete random probability measures and the exchangeable random partitions they induce
are key tools for addressing a variety of estimation and prediction problems in Bayesian …

Conditioning, likelihood, and coherence: A review of some foundational concepts
J Robins, L Wasserman - Journal of the American Statistical …, 2000 - Taylor & Francis
Statistics is intertwined with science and mathematics but is a subset of neither. The
“foundations of statistics” is the set of concepts that makes statistics a distinct field. For …
