A two-component Weibull mixture to model early and late mortality in a Bayesian framework
A two component parametric mixture is proposed to model survival after an invasive treatment, when patients may experience different hazards regimes: a risk of early mortality dir...

An alternative view of variational Bayes and asymptotic approximations of free energy
Bayesian learning, widely used in many applied data-modeling problems, is often accomplished with approximation schemes because it requires intractable computation of the posterio...

Bayesian Inference for Spiking Neuron Models with a Sparsity Prior
Generalized linear models are the most commonly used tools to describe the stimulus selectivity of sensory neurons. Here we present a Bayesian treatment of such models. Using the ...

Second Order Measures for Uncertainty Processing
Uncertainty processing methods are analysed from the viewpoint of their sensitivity to small variations of certainty factors. The analysis makes use of the algebraic theory which ...

ABCtoolbox: a versatile toolkit for approximate Bayesian computations
Background: The estimation of demographic parameters from genetic data often requires the computation of likelihoods. However, the likelihood function is computationally intractab...
