Statistical Modeling, Causal Inference, and Social Science. Laquo; How Many Mic’s Do We Rip. On deck this week. On 25 August 2014, 2:06 am. In comments, Rick Schoenberg wrote. I haven’t read your book, but I’d be happy to know what you think is a huge error that invalidates the whole last chapter that no one has uncovered so far. (Also, the last chapter of our book contains no calculations—perhaps you meant the chapter preceding the error? Hmmm, what’s on page 146 of Rick’s book? Actually, the first time...

When does Bayes do the job? - Statistical Modeling, Causal Inference, and Social Science
http://andrewgelman.com/2015/08/06/when-does-bayes-do-the-job
Statistical Modeling, Causal Inference, and Social Science. Laquo; How Hamiltonian Monte Carlo works. The secret to making a successful conference presentation. When does Bayes do the job? On 6 August 2015, 9:57 am. I recall that you have also stressed this issue, and I’d like to acknowledge that. Do you have pointers to a few of your papers where you explicitly mention this? Ideally I would just take a quotation. Which I absolutely love. Then there’s this paper. Here’s a quote from that paper:. The next...

Stochastic musings of a biostatistician. March 28, 2015. Laurie Davies and betting on adequacy. About a year and a half ago, I read P. L. Davies’s interesting paper Approximating Data. There was one passage I read that struck me as unusually wrong-headed (pg 195):. 1) distribution, as for the N. Distribution and so forth. It becomes clear that these odds are not representable by a probability distribution: only one distribution can be the ‘true’ but many can be adequate approximations. I tried to reply i...

Stochastic musings of a biostatistician. January 4, 2014. When does Bayesian inference shatter? In the spring of last year, a paper with the title. Bayesian Brittleness: Why no Bayesian model is “good enough”. Was put on the arXiv. The authors (Houman Owhadi, Clint Scovel, Tim Sullivan, henceforth OSS) later posted a followup entitled. When Bayesian inference shatters. When published, this work was commented on in a number of stats blogs I follow, including Xian’s Og and. This nice nickel summary. Note t...
