Abstract:
Abstract Background Recent vancomycin (VAN) guidelines recommend targeting an area under the curve (AUC) concentration of 400-600 for treatment of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections. Multiple strategies for calculating AUC exist, including first order pharmacokinetic (foPK) equations and Bayesian models. Most clinical applications of foPK assume unchanged patient status and project ideal administration times to estimate exposure. Bayesian modeling provides the best estimate of true drug exposure and can incorporate changing patient covariates and exact doses. We compared tw

Abstract:
Statistical analysts can encounter difficulties in obtaining point and interval estimates for fixed effects when sample sizes are small and there are two or more error strata to consider. Standard methods can lead to certain variance components being estimated as zero which often seems contrary to engineering experience and judgement. Shell Global Solutions (UK) has encountered such challenges and is always looking for ways to make its statistical techniques as robust as possible. In this instance, the challenge was to estimate fuel effects and confidence limits from small-sample fuel economy

Abstract:
Surface electromyography is used in research, to estimate the activity of muscle, in prosthetic design, to provide a control signal, and in biofeedback, to provide subjects with a visual or auditory indication of muscle contraction. Unfortunately, successful applications are limited by the variability in the signal and the consequent poor quality of estimates. I propose to use a nonlinear recursive filter based on Bayesian estimation. The desired filtered signal is modeled as a combined diffusion and jump process and the measured electromyographic (EMG) signal is modeled as a random process wi

However, the Bayesian estimate of the variance of the variance is much lower. This allows the Bayesian method to provide more precise interval estimates of responses.

Abstract:
Improved adaptive type-II progressive censoring schemes (IAT-II PCS) are increasingly being used to estimate parameters and reliability characteristics of lifetime distributions, leading to more accurate and reliable estimates. The logistic exponential distribution (LED), a flexible distribution with five hazard rate forms, is employed in several fields, including lifetime, financial, and environmental data. This research aims to enhance the accuracy and reliability estimation capabilities for the logistic exponential distribution under IAT-II PCS. By developing novel statistical inference met

Abstract:
Research shows that over repeated interactions with automation, human operators are able to learn how reliable the automation is and update their trust in automation. The goal of the present study is to investigate if this learning and inference process approximately follow the principle of Bayesian probabilistic inference. First, we applied Bayesian inference to estimate human operators’ perceived system reliability and found high correlations between the Bayesian estimates and the perceived reliability for the majority of the participants. We then correlated the Bayesian estimates with human

Abstract:
In this paper we use frequentist (classical) and Bayesian inference to estimate the rarity of birds in the University of the Philippines Diliman campus. Rare species have a detection probability of 1%. As sightings of certain species of birds are extremely rare, a frequentist approach to estimation will often result in overestimates of observation precision. Using McArdle’s rarity and Bayesian inference we estimated the probability of detecting rare species as between 4 to 10%. The Bayesian estimates are lower and may be a better method for estimating rarity. The coefficient of variation (CV)

Abstract:
Decision making requires managers to constantly estimate the probability of uncertain outcomes and update those estimates in light of new information. This article provides guidance to managers on how they can improve that process by more explicitly adopting a Bayesian approach. Clear understanding and application of the Bayesian approach leads to more accurate probability estimates, resulting in better informed decisions. More importantly, adopting a Bayesian approach, even informally, promises to improve the quality of managerial thinking, analysis, and decisions in a variety of additional w

Abstract:
We show a link between Bayesian inference and information theory that is useful for model selection, assessment of information entropy and experimental design. We align Bayesian model evidence (BME) with relative entropy and cross entropy in order to simplify computations using prior-based (Monte Carlo) or posterior-based (Markov chain Monte Carlo) BME estimates. On the one hand, we demonstrate how Bayesian model selection can profit from information theory to estimate BME values via posterior-based techniques. Hence, we use various assumptions including relations to several information criter

Abstract:
Bayesian simulation is increasingly exploited in the social sciences for estimation and inference of model parameters. But an especially useful (if often overlooked) feature of Bayesian simulation is that it can be used to estimate any function of model parameters, including “auxiliary” quantities such as goodness-of-fit statistics, predicted values, and residuals. Bayesian simulation treats these quantities as if they were missing data, sampling from their implied posterior densities. Exploiting this principle also lets researchers estimate models via Bayesian simulation where maximum-likelih

Abstract:
This paper uses a Bayesian approach for inverting seismic amplitude versus offset (AVO) data to provide estimates and uncertainties of the viscoelastic physical parameters at an interface. The inversion is based on Gibbs' sampling approach to determine properties of the posterior probability distribution (PPD), such as the posterior mean, maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate, marginal probability distributions, and covariances. The Bayesian formulation represents a fully nonlinear inversion; the results are compared to those of standard linearized inversion. The nonlinear and linearized approac

Abstract:
Abstract Many cognitive functions are represented as cell assemblies. In the case of spatial navigation, the population activity of place cells in the hippocampus and grid cells in the entorhinal cortex represents self-location in the environment. The brain cannot directly observe self-location information in the environment. Instead, it relies on sensory information and memory to estimate self-location. Therefore, estimating low-dimensional dynamics, such as the movement trajectory of an animal exploring its environment, from only the high-dimensional neural activity is important in decipheri
