I'll take the argument for why this could be a way to do it from the chapter "Model Selection" in "Data Analysis: A Bayesian Tutorial" by D. I should perhaps follow the guide of blogging-hero Paul Krugman and explicitly label posts like this as “wonkish”. Data-driven scientists (data miners) such as Rosling believe that data can tell a story, that observation equals information, that the best way towards scientific progress is to collect data, visualize them and analyze them (data miners However, it is also less consistent with the way we think - we are nearly always ultimately curious about the Bayesian probability of the hypothesis (i.e. Lifetime Data Analysis is the only journal dedicated to statistical methods and applications for lifetime data. Using the log-normal density can be confusing because it's parameterized in terms of the mean and precision of the log-scale data, not the original-scale data. For a shorter introduction try Sivia' book: Data analysis – A Bayesian tutorial. Data Analysis: A Bayesian Tutorial,. Presents an equal mixture of theory and applications,. Van Horn Books on Probability Theory and Applications Introductory. GO Doing Bayesian Data Analysis: A Tutorial with R and BUGS Author: John K. Tutorials will last 100 minutes. Language: English Released: 2010. Ranging from applications and new techniques made possible. Sivia: We have observed some data the forecast of two forecasters A and B. (If instead you'd prefer something a little more tutorial, I can recommend the excellent recent post from my colleague Indeed we are free to do 'exploratory data analysis' using (even) not-at-all-Bayesian techniques to help suggest new hypotheses. Recently, hierarchical Bayesian methods have been applied to data analysis [3]. Bernardo and Smith's 1994 book Bayesian Theory is perhaps most comprehensive, but quite mathematical. 8 Replies As a graduate student, I took Bill Jefferys' Bayesian Inference course at the University of Texas, where we used Bayesian Data Analysis by Gelman et al. The conference aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners to discuss recent developments in computational methods, methodology for data analysis and applications in statistics.
