Different aspects of mathematical finance benefit from the use Hermite polynomials, and this is particularly the case where risk drivers have a Gaussian distribution. They support quick analytical ...

A full-code demo from Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research shows how to predict the type of a college course by analyzing grade counts for each type of course. General naive Bayes classification ...

Maximum A Posteriori provides a means for estimating a parameter given some prior knowledge about a variable. In it, one assumes a given distribution for the variable and then estimates the parameter ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose two algorithms to realize a specific case of indeterminate finite summation operation introduced by multinomial theorem in computer-based simulations. One is the ...

Abstract: We propose a methodology for developing EM-based polynomial surrogate models exploiting the multinomial theorem. Our methodology is compared against four EM surrogate modeling techniques: ...

I've been attempting to create a custom_family for the Dirichlet-multinomial in brms v2.22.0, following the approach set out in the custom family vignette. However, I ...
