This paper presents a Bayesian significance test for stationarity of a regression equation using the highest posterior density credible set. In addition, a solution to the Behrens- Fisher problem is provided. From a Monte Carlo simulation study, it has been shown that the Bayesian significance...

Bandwidth plays an important role in determining the performance of local linear estimators. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian approach to bandwidth selection for local linear estimation of time-varying coefficient time series models, where the errors are assumed to follow the Gaussian kernel...

This paper deals with instability in regression coefficients. We propose a Bayesian regression model with time-varying coefficients (TVC) that allows to jointly estimate the degree of instability and the time-path of the coefficients. Thanks to the computational tractability of the model and to...

In this paper, a new member of the Poisson family of distributions called the Poison-Exponential-Gamma (PEG) distribution for modeling count data is proposed by compounding the Poisson with Exponential-Gamma distributions. The first four moments about the origin and mean of the new PEG...
