We consider an approximate posterior approach to making joint probabilistic inference on the action and the associated risk in data mining. The posterior probability is based on a profile empirical likelihood, which imposes a moment restriction relating the action to the resulting risk, but does...

This paper aims to investigate a Bayesian sampling approach to parameter estimation in the semiparametric GARCH model with an unknown conditional error density, which we approximate by a mixture of Gaussian densities centered at individual errors and scaled by a common standard deviation. This...

In this paper, we propose a generic Bayesian framework for inference in distributional regression models in which each parameter of a potentially complex response distribution and not only the mean is related to a structured additive predictor. The latter is composed additively of a variety of...
