A Bayesian framework for infrasound location

TL;DR: Bayesian infrasonic source location (BISL) developed here estimates event location and associated credibility regions by applying the complementary nature of back azimuths and arrival times for estimating well-constrained event locations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Bayesian approach to estimation and testing in time-course microarray experiments.

TL;DR: The objective of the present paper is to develop a truly functional Bayesian method specifically designed for time series microarray data that allows one to identify differentially expressed genes in a time-course microarray experiment, to rank them and to estimate their expression profiles.

Postrelease Testing and Software Release Policy for Enterprise-Level Systems

TL;DR: This research proposes an alternative release policy for custom-built enterprise-level software projects that allows testing to continue for an additional period after the software product is released that has several important advantages over the policy without postrelease testing.

Error Estimation and Model Selection

TL;DR: A new analysis of the generalization error of the hypothesis which minimizes the empirical error within a finite hypothes is language is presented and an information theoretic approach which does not require the assumption that empirical error rates in distinct cross validation folds are independent estimates is pursued.

Bayesian model selection for mixtures of structural equation models with an unknown number of components.

TL;DR: This paper considers mixtures of structural equation models with an unknown number of components and a Bayesian model selection approach is developed based on the Bayes factor via path sampling, which has a number of nice features.
