Stochastic Bayes factors: why, when, and how
Leonardo Egidi, Ioannis Ntzoufras
The Bayes factor (BF) is a central tool in Bayesian hypothesis testing and model selection, yet its practical use is often challenged. Classical BFs depend heavily on prior specifi…
Bayesian Handwriting Evidence Evaluation using MANOVA via Fourier-Based Extracted Features
Lampis Tzai, Ioannis Ntzoufras, Silvia Bozza
This paper proposes a novel statistical approach that aims at the identification of valid and useful patterns in handwriting examination via Bayesian modeling. Starting from a samp…
Eliciting prior information from clinical trials via calibrated Bayes factor
Roberto Macrì Demartino, Leonardo Egidi, Nicola Torelli +1
In the Bayesian framework power prior distributions are increasingly adopted in clinical trials and similar studies to incorporate external and past information, typically to infor…
Inconsistency identification in network meta-analysis via stochastic search variable selection
Georgios Seitidis, Stavros Nikolakopoulos, Ioannis Ntzoufras +1
The reliability of the results of network meta-analysis (NMA) lies in the plausibility of key assumption of transitivity. This assumption implies that the effect modifiers' distrib…
Bayesian analysis of diffusion-driven multi-type epidemic models with application to COVID-19
Lampros Bouranis, Nikolaos Demiris, Konstantinos Kalogeropoulos +1
We consider a flexible Bayesian evidence synthesis approach to model the age-specific transmission dynamics of COVID-19 based on daily mortality counts. The temporal evolution of t…
Assessing competitive balance in the English Premier League for over forty seasons using a stochastic block model
Francesca Basini, Vasiliki Tsouli, Ioannis Ntzoufras +1
Competitive balance is the subject of much interest in the sports analytics literature and beyond. In this paper, we develop a statistical network model based on an extension of th…
