Bayesian Discrepancy Measure: Higher-order and Skewed approximations
Elena Bortolato, Francesco Bertolino, Monica Musio +1
The aim of this paper is to discuss both higher-order asymptotic expansions and skewed approximations for the Bayesian Discrepancy Measure for testing precise statistical hypothese…
Comparison of two coefficients of variation: a new Bayesian approach
Francesco Bertolino, Silvia Columbu, Mara Manca +1
The coefficient of variation is a useful indicator for comparing the spread of values between dataset with different units or widely different means. In this paper we address the p…
Robust confidence distributions from proper scoring rules
Erlis Ruli, Laura Ventura, Monica Musio
A confidence distribution is a distribution for a parameter of interest based on a parametric statistical model. As such, it serves the same purpose for frequentist statisticians a…
A new Bayesian discrepancy measure
Francesco Bertolino, Mara Manca, Monica Musio +2
The aim of this article is to make a contribution to the Bayesian procedure of testing precise hypotheses for parametric models. For this purpose, we define the Bayesian Discrepanc…
The Hyvärinen scoring rule in Gaussian linear time series models
Silvia Columbu, Valentina Mameli, Monica Musio +1
Likelihood-based estimation methods involve the normalising constant of the model distributions, expressed as a function of the parameter. However in many problems this function is…
Causes of Effects via a Bayesian Model Selection Procedure
Fabio Corradi, Monica Musio
In causal inference, and specifically in the \textit{Causes of Effects} problem, one is interested in how to use statistical evidence to understand causation in an individual case,…
Comparisons of Hyvärinen and pairwise estimators in two simple linear time series models
Valentina Mameli, Monica Musio, A. Philip Dawid
The aim of this paper is to compare numerically the performance of two estimators based on Hyvärinen's local homogeneous scoring rule with that of the full and the pairwise maximum…
A Generalization of the Skew-Normal Distribution: The Beta Skew-Normal
Valentina Mameli, Monica Musio
The aim of this article is to introduce a new family of distributions, which generalizes the skew normal distribution (SN). This new family, called Beta skew-normal (BSN), arises n…
