Abstract:We discuss nonparametric Bayesian methods that are suitable for inference with binary, ordinal and general categorical data. Modeling for such data becomes particularly interesting in the presence of covariates, when non-and semiparametric Bayesian models can generalize the link function in a generalized linear model setup, the regression on covariates or both. An important application arises in inference for diagnostic screening and related inference for ROC (receiver-operator characteristic) curves. We inclu… Show more
