Asynchronous Distributed ECME Algorithm for Matrix Variate Non-Gaussian Responses

Qingyang Liu, Sanvesh Srivastava, Dipankar Bandyopadhyay

We propose a regression model with matrix-variate skew-t response (REGMVST) for analyzing irregular longitudinal data with skewness, symmetry, or heavy tails. REGMVST models matrix…

Regularized Parameter Estimation in Mixed Model Trace Regression

Ian Hultman, Sanvesh Srivastava

We introduce mixed model trace regression (MMTR), a mixed model linear regression extension for scalar responses and high-dimensional matrix-valued covariates. MMTR's fixed effects…

Asynchronous and Distributed Data Augmentation for Massive Data Settings

Jiayuan Zhou, Kshitij Khare, Sanvesh Srivastava

Data augmentation (DA) algorithms are widely used for Bayesian inference due to their simplicity. In massive data settings, however, DA algorithms are prohibitively slow because th…

Asymptotic Normality of the Posterior Distributions in a Class of Hidden Markov Models

Chunlei Wang, Sanvesh Srivastava

We show that the posterior distribution of parameters in a hidden Markov model with parametric emission distributions and discrete and known state space is asymptotically normal. T…
