We establish the validity of an Edgeworth expansion to the distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator of the parameter of a stationary, Gaussian, strongly dependent process. The result covers ARFIMA type models, including fractional Gaussian noise. The method of proof consists of three...

Research on Bayesian nonparametric methods has received a growing interest for the past twenty years, especially since the development of powerful simulation algorithms which makes the implementation of complex Bayesian methods possible. From that point it is necessary to understand from a...

Empirical Bayes procedures are commonly used based on the supposed asymptotic equivalence with fully Bayesian procedures, which, however, has not so far received full theoretical support in terms of uncertainty quantification. In this note, we provide some results on contraction rates of...

We present a dependent Bayesian nonparametric model for the proba- bilistic modelling of species-by-site data, i.e. population data where observations at different sites are classified into distinct species. We use a dependent version of the Griffiths-Engen-McCloskey distribution, the...

Although there have been a lot of developpements in the recent years on estimation in Bayesian nonparametric models, from a theoretical point view as well as from a methodological point of view, little has been done on Bayesian testing in nonparametric frameworks. In this talk I will be...
