Markov Chain Monte Carlo using Tree-Based Priors on Model Structure
We present a general framework for defining priors on model structure and sampling from the posterior using the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. The key ideas are that structure pri...

On Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian multivariate regression models with heavy-tailed errors
We consider Bayesian analysis of data from multivariate linear regression models whose errors have a distribution that is a scale mixture of normals. Such models are used to analy...

Bayesian Calibration for Monte Carlo Localization
Localization is a fundamental challenge for autonomous robotics. Although accurate and efficient techniques now exist for solving this problem, they require explicit probabilistic...

Posterior Consistency of the Silverman g-prior in Bayesian Model Choice
Kernel supervised learning methods can be unified by utilizing the tools from regularization theory. The duality between regularization and prior leads to interpreting regularizat...
