\begin{aligned} \begin{aligned} \], \[ = & \sum_i^n \left(y_i - \hat{\alpha} - \hat{\beta}x_i - (\alpha - \hat{\alpha}) - (\beta - \hat{\beta})x_i\right)^2 \\ With the exception of one observation for the individual with the largest fitted value, the residual plot suggests that this linear regression is a reasonable approximation. \], \[ -2(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})\sum_i^n(y_i-\hat{y}_i) = 0 \], \[ Before moving forward, I need to provide an important disclosure — the data I’m about to share and report were not systematically collected with the purpose of confirming any specific hypotheses about the effects of attendance mode on course grade. Module overview. The first term in the product is exactly the Normal distribution with mean \(\hat{\beta}\) and standard deviation \(\displaystyle \frac{\sigma^2}{\sum_i(x_i-\bar{x})^2} = \frac{\sigma^2}{\text{S}_{xx}}\), \[ \beta ~|~\sigma^2,\ \text{data}~ \sim ~ \textsf{Normal}\left(\hat{\beta},\ \frac{\sigma^2}{\text{S}_{xx}}\right). Bayesian linear regression predicts the distribution over target value by mariginalizing over the distribution over weights. \], \(\epsilon_i \mathrel{\mathop{\sim}\limits^{\rm iid}}\textsf{Normal}(0, \sigma^2)\), \[\begin{equation} However, the constant coefficient \(\beta_0\) is no longer the constant coefficient \(\alpha\) in (6.5). Moreover, we instroduced the concept of Bayes factors and gave some examples on how Bayes factors can be used in Bayesian hypothesis testing for comparison of two means. Since we have obtained the distribution of each coefficient, we can construct the credible interval, which provides us the probability that a specific coefficient falls into this credible interval. \end{aligned} Clearly we do not see a consistent effect of synchronous attendance. Let us now turn to the Bayesian version and show that under the reference prior, we will obtain the posterior distributions of \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) analogous with the frequentist OLS results. Instead, predictive models that predict the percentage of body fat which use readily available measurements such as abdominal circumference are easy to use and inexpensive. \beta_j~|~y_1,\cdots,y_n ~\sim ~\textsf{t}(n-p-1,\ \hat{\beta}_j,\ (\text{se}_{\beta_j})^2),\qquad j = 0, 1, \cdots, p. \[ \pi^*(\beta~|~\phi,\text{data}) \times \pi^*(\phi~|~\text{data}) \propto \left[\phi\exp\left(-\frac{\phi}{2}(\beta-\hat{\beta})^2\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2\right)\right] \times \left[\phi^{\frac{n-2}{2}-1}\exp\left(-\frac{\text{SSE}}{2}\phi\right)\right]. Applying this to the bodyfat data for Case 39, we get. The above bas.lm function uses the same model formula as in the lm. Our first task is to determine which of these models is best supported by the observed data. Each of the residuals, which provide an estimate of the fitting error, is equal to \(\hat{\epsilon}_i = y_i - \hat{y}_i\), the difference between the observed value \(y_i\) and the fited value \(\hat{y}_i = \hat{\alpha} + \hat{\beta}x_i\), where \(x_i\) is the abdominal circumference for the \(i\)th male. Conjugate priors are a technique from Bayesian statistics/machine learning. = & \left(\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2 + n\bar{x}^2\right)\left[(\beta-\hat{\beta})+\frac{n\bar{x}(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})}{\sum_i(x_i-\bar{x})^2+n\bar{x}^2}\right]^2+ n(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})^2\left[\frac{\sum_i(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2+n\bar{x}^2}\right]\\ Many Bayesian texts, such as Box & Tiao (1973), cover linear regression. \[ This approach incorporates our uncertainty about whether the case is an outlier given the data. \[ 1/\sigma^2~|~y_1,\cdots,y_n \sim \textsf{Gamma}\left(\frac{\nu_0+n}{2}, \frac{\nu_0\sigma_0^2+\text{SSE}}{2}\right). Here, \(y_{\text{score},i}\) is the \(i\)th kid’s cognitive score. The primary difference is the interpretation of the intervals. It first specifies the response and predictor variables, a data argument to provide the data frame. For Bayesian inference, we need to specify a prior distribution for the error term \(\epsilon_i\). & \sum_i^n (y_i-\bar{y}) = 0 \\ Then the integral becomes Most of these priors will not form any conjugacy and will require us to use simulation methods such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) for approximations. The likelihood of \(Y_1,\cdots,Y_n\) is the product of each likelihood \(p(y_i~|~x_i, \alpha, \beta,\sigma^2)\), since we assume each response \(Y_i\) is independent from each other. Our goal is to update the distributions of the unknown parameters \(\alpha\), \(\beta\), and \(\sigma^2\), based on the data \(x_1, y_1, \cdots, x_n, y_n\), where \(n\) is the number of observations. The model is the normal linear regression model: where: 1. is the vector of observations of the dependent variable; 2. is the matrix of regressors, which is assumed to have full rank; 3. is the vector of regression coefficients; 4. is the vector of errors, which is assumed to have a multivariate normal distribution conditional on , with mean and covariance matrix where is a positive constant and is the identity matrix. \], Using the partial results we have calculated previously, we get Unknown regression coefficients and known variance. Based on this evidence, I will choose to only include average viewing time as a predictor of course grade (and leave out attendance mode). Oh, and what about attendance mode for my first year statistics students? y_{\text{score}, i} = \beta_0 + \beta_1 (x_{\text{hs},i}-\bar{x}_{\text{hs}}) + \beta_2 (x_{\text{IQ},i}-\bar{x}_{\text{IQ}}) + \beta_3(x_{\text{work},i}-\bar{x}_{\text{work}}) + \beta_4 (x_{\text{age},i}-\bar{x}_{\text{age}}) + \epsilon_i. If you do take this option, be sure to describe what you did so that your research is reproducible. \], \[ \propto & \frac{1}{(\sigma^2)^{(n+1)/2}}\exp\left(-\frac{\text{SSE}+(\beta-\hat{\beta})^2\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2}{2\sigma^2}\right) This data frame includes 252 observations of men’s body fat and other measurements, such as waist circumference (Abdomen). MCMC is used to simulate posterior distribution when closed-form conjugate distribution such as the one in the previous Bayesian linear regression post is not available. On the other hand, consider the marginal posterior distribution for the coefficient of sync. \alpha~|~\sigma^2 \sim & \textsf{Normal}(a_0, \sigma^2\text{S}_\alpha) \\ Well, maybe, but I think we should collect some data first. As a word of caution, if you discover that there are a large number of points that appear to be outliers, take a second look at your model assumptions, since the problem may be with the model rather than the data! (Cauchy distribution is the Student’s \(t\) prior with 1 degree of freedom. \] & \sum_i^n (x_i-\bar{x}) = 0 \\ We usually use Gibbs sampling to approximate the joint posterior distribution instead of using the result directly, especially when we have more regression coefficients in multiple linear regression models. So that’s exactly what I did. The event of getting at least 1 outlier is the complement of the event of getting no outliers. We again start from the joint posterior distribution \], \[ = & \left(\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2 + n\bar{x}^2\right)\left[(\beta-\hat{\beta})+\frac{n\bar{x}(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})}{\sum_i(x_i-\bar{x})^2+n\bar{x}^2}\right]^2+ n(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})^2\left[\frac{\sum_i(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2+n\bar{x}^2}\right]\\ p^*(\alpha, \beta, \sigma^2~|~y_1,\cdots,y_n) \propto & \left[\prod_i^n p(y_i~|~x_i,\alpha,\beta,\sigma^2)\right]p(\alpha, \beta,\sigma^2) \\ If you do view it as an outlier, what are your options? t_\alpha^\ast = \frac{\alpha - \hat{\alpha}}{\text{se}_{\alpha}},\qquad \qquad t_\beta^\ast = \frac{\beta-\hat{\beta}}{\text{se}_{\beta}}. = & \text{SSE} + n(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})^2 +(\beta-\hat{\beta})^2\sum_i^n (x_i-\bar{x})^2 + (\beta-\hat{\beta})^2 (n\bar{x}^2) +2(\alpha-\hat{\alpha})(\beta-\hat{\beta})(n\bar{x})\\ This may be our potential outlier and we will have more discussion on outlier in Section 6.2. \], \[ \text{Cov}(\alpha, \beta ~|~\sigma^2) =\sigma^2 \text{S}_{\alpha\beta}. \begin{aligned} Taking mean on both sides of equation (6.6) immediately gives \(\beta_0=\bar{y}_{\text{score}}\).↩︎, Note: as.numeric is not necessary here. \(\alpha\) in the frequentist OLS estimate, and its scale parameter is \(\displaystyle \hat{\sigma}^2\left(\frac{1}{n}+\frac{\bar{x}^2}{\sum_i (x_i-\bar{x})^2}\right)\), which is the square of the standard error of \(\hat{\alpha}\). \], A similar approach will lead us to the marginal distribution of \(\alpha\).
