Bayesian Community Detection
Stéphanie van der Pas, Aad van der Vaart
We introduce a Bayesian estimator of the underlying class structure in the stochastic block model, when the number of classes is known. The estimator is the posterior mode correspo…
Uncertainty quantification for the horseshoe
Stéphanie van der Pas, Botond Szabó, Aad van der Vaart
We investigate the credible sets and marginal credible intervals resulting from the horseshoe prior in the sparse multivariate normal means model. We do so in an adaptive setting w…
On the Asymptotic Normality of Estimating the Affine Preferential Attachment Network Models with Random Initial Degrees
Fengnan Gao, Aad van der Vaart
We consider the estimation of the affine parameter (and power-law exponent) in the preferential attachment model with random initial degrees. We derive the likelihood, and show tha…
