One for all : nesting asymmetric stochastic volatility models

Mao, Xiuping; Ruiz, Esther; Veiga, Helena - Departamento de Estadistica, Universidad Carlos III de … - 2013

This paper proposes a new stochastic volatility model to represent the dynamic evolution of conditionally heteroscedastic time series with leverage effect. Although there are already several models proposed in the literature with the same purpose, our main justification for a further new model...

Choice of Priors and Variable Selection in Bayesian Regression

Olubusoye, Olusanya .E.; Okonkwo, Onyeka C. - In: Journal of Asian Scientific Research 2 (2012) 7, pp. 354-377

This study is focused on the applications of the Bayes theory to Normal linear Regression model in choosing prior distributions for the parameters of interest and in the selection of variables for inclusion/deletion from a model-in the case of a reduced model. For the choice of prior...

A study of the powerplay in one-day cricket

Silva, Rajitha M.; Manage, Ananda B.W.; Swartz, Tim B. - In: European Journal of Operational Research 244 (2015) 3, pp. 931-938

This paper investigates the powerplay in one-day cricket. The rules concerning the powerplay have been tinkered with over the years, and therefore the primary motivation of the paper is the assessment of the impact of the powerplay with respect to scoring. The form of the analysis takes a...

Bayesian analysis in Stata with WinBUGS

Thompson, John; Palmer, Tom; Moreno, Santiago - In: Stata Journal 6 (2006) 4, pp. 530-549

WinBUGS is a program for Bayesian model fitting by Gibbs sampling. WinBUGS has limited facilities for data handling …, whereas Stata has no routines for Bayesian analysis; therefore, much can be gained by running Stata and WinBUGS together. We … present a set of ado-files that enable data to be processed in Stata and then passed to WinBUGS for model fitting; finally …

Spatial Modeling for Capturing the Effects of Point Sources

Heo, Tae-Young - 2005

The point source is the most common type of source to be modeled for its effect on air pollution. Point sources provide auxiliary information that may impact both the mean and covariance structure of measured responses, but these possible impacts are often overlooked by spatial modelers. In this...
