This article discuss the use of Bayesian methods for inference and forecasting in dynamic term structure models through Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations (INLA). This method of analytical approximations allows for accurate inferences for latent factors, parameters and forecasts in dynamic...

This paper deals with the prediction of time series with correlated errors at each time point using a Bayesian forecast approach based on the multivariate Holt–Winters model. Assuming that each of the univariate time series comes from the univariate Holt–Winters model, all of them sharing a...

A Bayesian mixed estimation framework is used to examine the forecast accuracy of alternative closures of an input-output model for the Oklahoma economy. The closures correspond to textbook Type I and Type II multipliers, as well as variations of extended input-output and Type IV multipliers....

We study the value of information, production flexibility, and supplier flexibility for a good for which an initial and a subsequent order may be placed. We consider a Bayesian model of demand in which the unknown mean demand rate is assumed to have a prior, which is a mixture of two normal...
