Bayesian Analysis for Social Science Research
Carolina Luque, Juan Sosa
In this manuscript, we discuss the substantial importance of Bayesian reasoning in Social Science research. Particularly, we focus on foundational elements to fit models under the…
Conditional Relative Risk: An association measure for longitudinal data analysis
Lina Buitrago, Juan Sosa, Oscar Melo
In this paper, we propose a novel association measure for longitudinal studies based on the traditional definition of relative risk. In a Markovian fashion, such a proposal takes i…
Operationalizing Legislative Bodies: A Methodological and Empirical Perspective
Carolina Luque, Juan Sosa
This manuscript extensively reviews applications, extensions, and models derived from the Bayesian ideal point estimator. We primarily focus our attention on studies conducted in t…
Some Case Studies Using Bayesian Statistical Models
Juan Sosa, Lina Buitrago
We provide four case studies that use Bayesian machinery to making inductive reasoning. Our main motivation relies in offering several instances where the Bayesian approach to data…
A Gentle Introduction to Bayesian Hierarchical Linear Regression Models
Juan Sosa, Jeimy Aristizabal
Considering the flexibility and applicability of Bayesian modeling, in this work we revise the main characteristics of two hierarchical models in a regression setting. We study the…
Time-Varying Coefficient Model Estimation Through Radial Basis Functions
Juan Sosa, Lina Buitrago
In this paper we estimate the dynamic parameters of a time-varying coefficient model through radial kernel functions in the context of a longitudinal study. Our proposal is based o…
A Prior for Record Linkage Based on Allelic Partitions
Brenda Betancourt, Juan Sosa, Abel Rodríguez
In database management, record linkage aims to identify multiple records that correspond to the same individual. This task can be treated as a clustering problem, in which a latent…
A Bayesian Approach for De-duplication in the Presence of Relational Data
Juan Sosa, Abel Rodriguez
In this paper, we study the impact of combining profile and network data in a de-duplication setting. We also assess the influence of a range of prior distributions on the linkage…
A Latent Space Model for Cognitive Social Structures Data
Juan Sosa, Abel Rodriguez
This paper introduces a novel approach for modeling a set of directed, binary networks in the context of cognitive social structures (CSSs) data. We adopt a relativist approach in…
