Precise identification of the time when a process has changed enables process engineers to search for a potential special cause more effectively. In this paper, we develop change point estimation methods for a Poisson process in a Bayesian framework. We apply Bayesian hierarchical models to...

In this paper we derive adaptive non-parametric rates of concentration of the posterior distributions for the density model on the class of Sobolev and Besov spaces. For this purpose, we build prior models based on wavelet or Fourier expansions of the logarithm of the density. The prior models...

This introduction to Bayesian statistics presents the main concepts as well as the principal reasons advocated in favour of a Bayesian modelling. We cover the various approaches to prior determination as well as the basis asymptotic arguments in favour of using Bayes estimators. The testing...

In this work we investigate the asymptotic properties of nonparametric bayesian mixtures of Betas for estimating a smooth density on [0,1]. We consider a parameterisation of Betas distributions in terms of mean and scale parameters and construct a mixture of these Betas in the mean parameter,...

A stationary Gaussian process is said to be long-range dependent (resp., anti-persistent) if its spectral density f(λ) can be written as f(λ)=|λ|−2dg(|λ|), where 0d1/2 (resp., −1/2d0), and g is continuous and positive. We propose a novel Bayesian nonparametric approach for the estimation...
