Spectral divide-and-conquer MCMC for long stationary time series

Zixuan Wang, Matias Quiroz, Feng Li +2

The temporal dependence inherent in time series models poses a fundamental challenge for distributed Bayesian inference, as it precludes embarrassingly parallel algorithms based on…

Spectral subsampling MCMC for Lévy-driven continuous-time ARMA models with expensive likelihood contributions

Thomas Goodwin, Matias Quiroz, Robert Kohn +1

Subsampling-based Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms aim to accelerate Bayesian inference by evaluating the likelihood using only a subset of the data at each iteration. Ho…

Calibrated Bayesian inference for random fields on large irregular domains using the debiased spatial Whittle likelihood

Thomas Goodwin, Arthur Guillaumin, Matias Quiroz +2

Bayesian inference for stationary random fields is computationally demanding. Whittle-type likelihoods in the frequency domain based on the fast Fourier Transform (FFT) have severa…

Dynamic linear regression models for forecasting time series with semi long memory errors

Thomas Goodwin, Matias Quiroz, Robert Kohn

Dynamic linear regression models forecast the values of a time series based on a linear combination of a set of exogenous time series while incorporating a time series process for…

Analysing symbolic data by pseudo-marginal methods

Yu Yang, Matias Quiroz, Boris Beranger +2

Symbolic data analysis (SDA) aggregates large individual-level datasets into a small number of distributional summaries, such as random rectangles or random histograms. The inferen…

A correlated pseudo-marginal approach to doubly intractable problems

Yu Yang, Matias Quiroz, Robert Kohn +1

Doubly intractable models are encountered in a number of fields, e.g. social networks, ecology and epidemiology. Inference for such models requires the evaluation of a likelihood f…

Spectral Subsampling MCMC for Stationary Multivariate Time Series with Applications to Vector ARTFIMA Processes

Mattias Villani, Matias Quiroz, Robert Kohn +1

Spectral subsampling MCMC was recently proposed to speed up Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) for long stationary univariate time series by subsampling periodogram observations in th…

Spectral Subsampling MCMC for Stationary Time Series

Robert Salomone, Matias Quiroz, Robert Kohn +2

Bayesian inference using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) on large datasets has developed rapidly in recent years. However, the underlying methods are generally limited to relativel…

Variance reduction properties of the reparameterization trick

Ming Xu, Matias Quiroz, Robert Kohn +1

The reparameterization trick is widely used in variational inference as it yields more accurate estimates of the gradient of the variational objective than alternative approaches s…

Subsampling Sequential Monte Carlo for Static Bayesian Models

David Gunawan, Khue-Dung Dang, Matias Quiroz +2

We show how to speed up Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) for Bayesian inference in large data problems by data subsampling. SMC sequentially updates a cloud of particles through a sequ…

Speeding Up MCMC by Delayed Acceptance and Data Subsampling

Matias Quiroz, Minh-Ngoc Tran, Mattias Villani +1

The complexity of the Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm arises from the requirement of a likelihood evaluation for the full data set in each iteration. Payne and Mallick (2015) pr…
