Bayesian inference and model selection method for software reliability growth models are studied. Software reliability growth models are used in testing stages of software development to model the error content and time intervals between software failures. In this paper, we could avoid the multiple integration by the use of Gibbs sampling, which is a kind of Markov Chain Monte Carlo method to compute the posterior distribution. Bayesian inference and model selection method for Jelinski-Moranda and Goel-Okumoto and Schick-Wolverton models in software reliability with Poisson prior information are studied. For model selection, we explored the relative error.

We propose a Bayesian model selection procedure for nonlinear regression models under noninformative prior. For informative prior, Na and Kim (2002) suggested the Bayesian model selection procedure through MCMC techniques. We extend this method to the case of noninformative prior. The difficulty with the use of noninformative prior is that it is typically improper and hence is defined only up to arbitrary constant. The methods, such as Intrinsic Bayes Factor(IBF) and Fractional Bayes Factor(FBF), are used as a resolution to the problem. We showed the detailed model selection procedure through the specific real data set.

When X and Y have independent gamma distributions, we consider the testing problem for two gamma means. We propose a solution based on a Bayesian model selection procedure to this problem in which no subjective input is considered. The reference prior is derived. Using the derived reference prior, we compute the fractional Bayes factor and the intrinsic Bayes factors. The posterior probability of each model is used as a model selection tool. Simulation study and a real data example are provided.

메타분석(Meta-analysis)은 서로 독립적으로 연구되어진 결과들을 전체적인 하나의 결과로 도출하기 위해 사용되어지는 통계적 방법이다. 이러한 통계적 방법을 설명할 모형으로는 선택모형(selection model)을 포함한 계층적 모형(hierarchical model)을 사용하며, 이러한 모형들은 베이지안 메타분석에 유용한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나, 메타분석의 자료들은 일반적으로 출판편의(publication bias)를 갖고 있으므로 이를 극복하고자 가중함수(weight function)를 이용하여 분포함수를 새롭게 정의하여 사용한다. 최근에 Silliman(1997)은 계층적 모형(hierarchical model)에 가중함수를 첨부한 계층적 선택모형(hierarchical selection model)을 정의하고 모수적 베이지안 방법을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 미관측된 연구효과에 디리슈레 과정 사전분포(Dirichlet process prior)를 적용한 준모수적 계층적 선택모형(semiparametric hierarchical selection models)을 소개한다. 여기서 제시된 준모수적 계층적 선택모형을 베이지안 방법으로 추정하기 위하여 마코프 연쇄 몬테칼로(Markov chain Monte Carlo)방법을 이용한다. 제시된 방법을 적용하기 위하여 실제 자료(Johnson, 1993)인 충치를 예방하기 위한 두 가지의 예방약의 효과에 대한 차이를 비교하기 위해 얻어진 12개의 연구를 이용하여 메타분석을 한다.

This paper considers the Bayesian analysis of the regression model wish autoregressive errors. The Bayesian approach for finding the order p of autoregressive error is proposed and the proposed method can be simplified by generalized Savage-Dicky density ratio(Verdinelli and Wasser-man, [18]). And the Markov chain Monte Carlo method(Gibbs sample, [7]) is used in order to overcome the difficulty of Bayesian computations. Final1y, several examples are used to illustrate our proposed methodology.

본 논문에서는 포아송분포 대 음이항분포, 그리고 정규분포, 이중지 수분포 대 코쉬분포에 대한 모형선택을 위하여 베이지안 방법을 사용한다. 각 모수에 대한 사전분포로는 무정보 부적절 사전분포의 가정 하에, 베이지안 모형선택을 위하여 O'Hagan (1995)의 부분적 베 이즈요인을 이용하였다. 실제자료와 모의 실험 자료의 분석을 통하여 부분적 베이즈요인의 유용성을 Berger와 Pericchi (1996, 1998)의 내재적 베이즈요인들과 함께 비교 검토해 본다.

Tweedie (1957a) proposed a method for the analysis of residuals from an inverse Gaussian population paralleling the analysis of variance in normal theory. He called it the analysis of reciprocals. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian model selection procedure based on the fractional Bayes factor for the analysis of reciprocals. Using the proposed model selection procedures, we compare with the classical tests.

The Bayesian model selection procedures for the shape parameter of gamma distribution are proposed in order to test that the failure rate of gamma distribution is constant, increasing or decreasing. The encompassing intrinsic Bayes factor by Beger and Pericchi (1996) based on Jeffreys prior for shape parameter is used to investigate the usefulness of the proposed Bayesian model selection procedures via both real data and pseudo data.

This paper is concerned with suggesting a Bayesian method for variable selection in multinomial logit model. It is based upon an optimal rule suggested by use of Bayes rule which minimizes a risk induced by selecting the multinomial logit model. The rule is to find a subset of variables that maximizes the marginal likelihood of the model. We also propose a Laplace-Metropolis algorithm intended to suggest a simple method forestimating the marginal likelihood of the model. Based upon two examples, artificial data and empirical data examples, the Bayesian method is illustrated and its efficiency is examined.
