Abstract
We present a posterior analysis of kernel mixtures of thinned completely random measures 6 (CRMs) for multivariate intensities, in the context of competing risks models. The construction 7 of the thinned CRMs is derived from a common Poisson random measure that includes the thin8 ning probabilities in its intensity and is transferable to existing Poisson partition calculus results 9 for the posterior analysis (James 2002, 2005). We derive the posterior thinned CRMs, provide 10 generalizations of both the Blackwell and MacQueen Pólya urn formula and the (weighted) Chi11 nese restaurant process for the variates and partitions generated from the thinned CRMs, and 12 we outline strategies for the further development of Monte Carlo simulation for estimation. 13
期刊介绍:
BERNOULLI is the journal of the Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics and Probability, issued four times per year. The journal provides a comprehensive account of important developments in the fields of statistics and probability, offering an international forum for both theoretical and applied work.
BERNOULLI will publish:
Papers containing original and significant research contributions: with background, mathematical derivation and discussion of the results in suitable detail and, where appropriate, with discussion of interesting applications in relation to the methodology proposed.
Papers of the following two types will also be considered for publication, provided they are judged to enhance the dissemination of research:
Review papers which provide an integrated critical survey of some area of probability and statistics and discuss important recent developments.
Scholarly written papers on some historical significant aspect of statistics and probability.
