Limiting the Shrinkage for the Exceptional by Objective Robust Bayesian Analysis: the `Clemente Problem'

Luis R. Pericchi, Maria-Eglee Perez

In `borrowing strength' an important problem of Statistics is to treat exceptional cases in a fundamentally different. This is what has been coined as `the Clemente problem' in hon…

A Bridge between Cross-validation Bayes Factors and Geometric Intrinsic Bayes Factors

Yekun Wang, Luis Pericchi

Model Selections in Bayesian Statistics are primarily made with statistics known as Bayes Factors, which are directly related to Posterior Probabilities of models. Bayes Factors re…

Changing the paradigm of fixed significance levels: Testing Hypothesis by Minimizing Sum of Errors Type I and Type II

Luis Pericchi, Carlos Pereira

Our purpose, is to put forward a change in the paradigm of testing by generalizing a very natural idea exposed by Morris DeGroot (1975) aiming to an approach that is attractive to…

Training samples in objective Bayesian model selection

James O. Berger, Luis R. Pericchi

Central to several objective approaches to Bayesian model selection is the use of training samples (subsets of the data), so as to allow utilization of improper objective priors. T…
