A PENALIZED COMPLEXITY PRIOR FOR DEEP BAYESIAN TRANSFER LEARNING WITH APPLICATION TO MATERIALS INFORMATICS

ANNALS OF APPLIED STATISTICS, 17(4), 3241–3256.

By: M. Abba n, J. Williams n & B. Reich n

author keywords: Kullback-Leibler divergence; materials science; neural networks; variational Bayesian inference
TL;DR: This work proposes a new Bayesian transfer learning approach based on the penalized complexity prior on the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the predictive models of the source and target tasks and shows that the proposed method outperforms other transfer learning methods across a variety of settings.

GENERALIZED FIDUCIAL FACTOR: AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE BAYES FACTOR FOR FORENSIC IDENTIFICATION OF SOURCE PROBLEMS

ANNALS OF APPLIED STATISTICS, 17(1), 378–402.

By: J. Williams n, D. Ommen* & J. Hannig*

author keywords: Bayes factor; generalized fiducial inference; likelihood ratio
TL;DR: This work develops an alternative to the Bayes factor, within the framework of generalized fiducial inference (GFI), that is term a GFF (GFF), and demonstrates empirically, on the synthetic and real Netherlands Forensic Institute casework data, deficiencies in the BF and classical/frequentist likelihood ratio (LR) approaches.

Can Administrative Health Data Improve the Gold Standard? Evidence from a Model of the Progression of Myocardial Infarction

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH, 18(14).

author keywords: administrative data; myocardial infarction; disease progression; Australia
MeSH headings : Aged; Bayes Theorem; Female; Hospitalization; Humans; Male; Myocardial Infarction / epidemiology; Non-ST Elevated Myocardial Infarction; Risk Factors; ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
TL;DR: This study shows that administrative health data were useful to estimate factors determining the risk of MI and the progression of this health condition and shows that misclassification may cause the incidence of MI to be under-estimated. (via Semantic Scholar)
