Variational Bayesian Approach for Interval Estimation of NHPP-Based Software Reliability Models
In this paper, we present a variational Bayesian (VB) approach to computing the interval estimates for nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) software reliability models. This appr...

Estimating the size of the telephone universe: a Bayesian Mark-recapture approach
Mark-recapture models have for many years been used to estimate the unknown sizes of animal and bird populations. In this article we adapt a finite mixture mark-recapture model i...

Univariate Polynomial Inference by Monte Carlo Message Length Approximation
We apply the Message from Monte Carlo (MMC) algorithm to inference of univariate polynomials. MMC is an algorithm for point estimation from a Bayesian posterior sample. It partiti...

Evaluating probabilities under high-dimensional latent variable models
We present a simple new Monte Carlo algorithm for evaluating probabilities of observations in complex latent variable models, such as Deep Belief Networks. While the method is bas...

Sharpe style analysis in the msci sector portfolios: a monte carlo integration approach
We examine a decision-theoretic Bayesian framework for the estimation of Sharpe Style portfolio weights of the MSCI sector returns. Following van Dijk and Kloek (1980) an appropri...
