U-Likelihood and U-Updating Algorithms: Statistical Inference in Latent Variable Models
Abstract. In this paper we consider latent variable models and introduce a new U-likelihood concept for estimating the distribution over hidden variables. One can derive an estimat...

On Ranking in Survival Analysis: Bounds on the Concordance Index
In this paper, we show that classical survival analysis involving censored data can naturally be cast as a ranking problem. The concordance index (CI), which quantifies the quali...

A Bayesian Multiresolution Independence Test for Continuous Variables
In this paper we present a method of computing the posterior probability of conditional independence of two or more continuous variables from data, examined at several resolutions...
