The Curious Case of the Default Settings: Evaluating Default Performance of Variational Inference Software
Madelyn Andersen, Elizabeth Bersson, Tamara Broderick
We systematically evaluate a suite of off-the-shelf variational inference (VI) software packages from the perspective of a standard practitioner. Using simple analytic benchmark mo…
Feature aware covariance estimation, with application to mixtures of chemical exposures
Elizabeth Bersson, Kate Hoffman, Heather M. Stapleton +1
The motivation of this article is to improve inferences on the covariation in environmental exposures, motivated by data from a study of Toddlers Exposure to SVOCs in Indoor Enviro…
Frequentist Prediction Sets for Species Abundance using Indirect Information
Elizabeth Bersson, Peter D. Hoff
Citizen science databases that consist of volunteer-led sampling efforts of species communities are relied on as essential sources of data in ecology. Summarizing such data across…
Bayesian Covariance Estimation for Multi-group Matrix-variate Data
Elizabeth Bersson, Peter D. Hoff
Multi-group covariance estimation for matrix-variate data with small within group sample sizes is a key part of many data analysis tasks in modern applications. To obtain accurate…
Optimal Conformal Prediction for Small Areas
Elizabeth Bersson, Peter D. Hoff
Existing inferential methods for small area data involve a trade-off between maintaining area-level frequentist coverage rates and improving inferential precision via the incorpora…
