On Resolving Problems with Conditionality and Its Implications for Characterizing Statistical Evidence
Michael Evans, Constantine Frangakis
The conditionality principle plays a key role in attempts to characterize the concept of statistical evidence. The standard version of considers a model and a derived condi…
Combining Evidence
Michael Evans, Yang Jian Guo
The problem of combining the evidence concerning an unknown, contained in each of Bayesian inference bases, is discussed. This can be considered as a generalization of the prob…
On Some Problems of Confidence Region Construction
Michael Evans, Miaoshiqi Liu, Michael Moon +3
The general problem of constructing confidence regions is unsolved in the sense that there is no algorithm that provides such a region with guaranteed coverage for an arbitrary par…
The Measurement of Statistical Evidence as the Basis for Statistical Reasoning
Michael Evans
There are various approaches to the problem of how one is supposed to conduct a statistical analysis. Different analyses can lead to contradictory conclusions in some problems so t…
Measuring and Controlling Bias for Some Bayesian Inferences and the Relation to Frequentist Criteria
Michael Evans, Yang Guo
A common concern with Bayesian methodology in scientific contexts is that inferences can be heavily influenced by subjective biases. As presented here, there are two types of bias…
Statistical Reasoning: Choosing and Checking the Ingredients, Inferences Based on a Measure of Statistical Evidence with Some Applications
Luai Al-Labadi, Zeynep Baskurt, Michael Evans
The features of a logically sound approach to a theory of statistical reasoning are discussed. A particular approach that satisfies these criteria is reviewed. This is seen to invo…
