Using infinite server queues with partial information for occupancy prediction
Nikki Sonenberg, Victoria Volodina, Peter G. Challenor +1
Motivated by demand prediction for the custodial prison population in England and Wales, this paper describes an approach to the study of service systems using infinite server queu…
On the Stability of General Bayesian Inference
Jack Jewson, Jim Q. Smith, Chris Holmes
We study the stability of posterior predictive inferences to the specification of the likelihood model and perturbations of the data generating process. In modern big data analyses…
Scalable Model Selection for Staged Trees: Mean-posterior Clustering and Binary Trees
Peter Strong, Jim Q. Smith
Several structure-learning algorithms for staged trees, asymmetric extensions of Bayesian networks, have been proposed. However, these either do not scale efficiently as the number…
Causal chain event graphs for remedial maintenance
Xuewen Yu, Jim Q. Smith
The analysis of system reliability has often benefited from graphical tools such as fault trees and Bayesian networks. In this article, instead of conventional graphical tools, we…
A Bayesian Decision Support System in Energy Systems Planning
Victoria Volodina, Nikki Sonenberg, Peter Challenor +1
Gaussian Process (GP) emulators are widely used to approximate complex computer model behaviour across the input space. Motivated by the problem of coupling computer models, recent…
Bayesian Model Averaging of Chain Event Graphs for Robust Explanatory Modelling
Peter Strong, Jim Q Smith
Chain Event Graphs (CEGs) are a widely applicable class of probabilistic graphical model that can represent context-specific independence statements and asymmetric unfoldings of ev…
