For count responses, the situation of excess zeros often occurs in various research fields. Zero-inflated model is a common choice for modeling such count data. Bayesian inference for the zero-inflated model has long been recognized as a hard problem because the form of conditional posterior distribution is not in closed form. Recently, however, Pillow and Scott (2012) and Polson et al. (2013) proposed a Pólya-Gamma data-augmentation strategy for logistic and negative binomial models, facilitating Bayesian inference for the zero-inflated model. We apply Bayesian zero-inflated negative binomial regression model to longitudinal pharmaceutical data which have been previously analyzed by Min and Agresti (2005). To facilitate posterior sampling for longitudinal zero-inflated model, we use the Pólya-Gamma data-augmentation strategy.

이 논문에서 문장특성을 파악하는 방법으로 주로 이용한 것은 특정문자의 출현율이다. 어떤 사람이나 그 글 속에는 자신의 개성이 들어있다. 문장의 길이를 비롯하여 문장의 구조나 어휘량, 유의어 중에서 선호하는 글자, 평서문이나 의문문의 사용, 품사의 사용, 문두나 문말에 오는 글자 등에서 각각의 개성이 드러난다. 그 중에서도 접속사나 조사, 접두어, 접미어 등 상대적으로 의미적인 요소보다는 형식적인 요소에 가까운 영역에서 문장의 특성이 두드러지는 것으로 보고되어 있다, 이런 특징을 이용하여 화랑세기의 저작자의 진위를 추론하고자 한다.

Modeling financial phenomena with diffusion processes is a commonly used methodology in the area of modern finance. Recently, various types of diffusion models have been suggested to explain the specific financial processes, and their related inference methodology have been also developed. In particular, likelihood methods for the efficient and accurate inference have been explored in various ways. In this paper, we review the mathematical properties of an approximated likelihood method, which is obtained by linearizing the drift coefficient of a diffusion process.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the science reasoning differences of elementary school students' science writing. For this purpose, science writing activities and analysis frameworks were developed. Science writing data were collected and analyzed. Third to sixth grade elementary students were selected from a middle high level elementary school in terms of a national achievement test in Seoul. A total of 320 writing materials were analyzed. The results of the analysis were as follows. Science writings show science reasoning at 52 % for $3^{rd}$ grade, 68% for $4^{th}$ grade, 85% for $5^{th}$ grade, and 89% for $6^{th}$ grade. Three types of scientific reasoning such as inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning, and abductive reasoning appeared in science writing of the third to sixth graders. The abductive reasoning appeared very low in comparing with inductive and deductive reasoning. Level three appeared the most frequently in the science writing of the elementary students. The levels of inductive and deductive reasoning in science writing increased according to increasing grade and showed statistical differences between grades. But the levels of abductive reasoning did not show an increasing aspect according to increasing grade and also did not show statistical differences between grades. The levels of inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning of the 3rd grade was very low in comparing with the other grades.

This paper discusses the Bayesian statistical inference. This paper discusses the Bayesian inference, MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) integration, MCMC method, Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, Gibbs sampling, Maximum likelihood estimation, Expectation Maximization algorithm, missing data processing, and BMA (Bayesian Model Averaging). The Bayesian statistical inference is used to process a large amount of data in the areas of biology, medicine, bioengineering, science and engineering, and general data analysis and processing, and provides the important method to draw the optimal inference result. Lastly, this paper discusses the method of principal component analysis. The PCA method is also used for data analysis and inference.

Nonparametric statistical inference for the parameter of logit model were examined. Usually nonparametric approach is milder than parametric approach based on normal theory assumption. We compared the two nonparametric methods for legit model, the bootstrap and random permutation in the sense of coverage probability. Monte Carlo simulation is conducted for small sample cases. Empirical power of hypothesis test and coverage probability for confidence interval estimation were presented for simple and multiple legit model respectively. An example were also introduced.

통계적 추론에 사용되는 많은 통계량들은 평균벡터의 평활함수의 형태로 표현이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 이들 통계량들의 분포함수에 대한 안부점근사법을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 Na(1998)에서 제시된 일반적 통계량의 분포함수에 대한 안부점근사법이 평균벡터의 평활함수모형에 특히 유용하게 사용될 수 있음을 보인 것이다. 이 근사법은 정규근사에 비해 근사의 정도가 뛰어나며, 특히 통계량의 꼬리부분의 확률에 대해서도 정확도가 그대로 유지되는 장점이 있어 정밀한 추론이 요구되는 많은 문제에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 모의 실험에 사용할 평균벡터의 평활함수 모형으로는 스튜던트화 분산을 고려하였다.

Logit models are commonly used to predicting and classifying categorical response variables. Most Bayesian approaches to logit models are implemented based on the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. However, the algorithm has disadvantages of slow convergence and difficulty in ensuring adequacy for the proposal distribution. Therefore, we use auxiliary mixture sampler proposed by Frühwirth-Schnatter and Frühwirth (2007) to estimate logit models. This method introduces two sequences of auxiliary latent variables to make logit models satisfy normality and linearity. As a result, the method leads that logit model can be easily implemented by Gibbs sampling. We applied the proposed method to diabetes data from the Community Health Survey (2020) of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency and compared performance with Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. In addition, we showed that the logit model using auxiliary mixture sampling has a great classification performance comparable to that of the machine learning models.

A new statistical model needs additional variables in order to re-evaluate the undecided inference. Then the MNAR assumption is required, since the probabilities for the positivity of the indeterminant and the determinant is calculated differently. In this study, since two statistical models have a hierarchical relationship, we determine the undecided inference under the MNAR assumption using the confidence interval of the difference between two AUCs. Among many methods of estimating the confidence interval of the AUC difference, it is found that four kinds of methods show excellent performance through simulations. And based on these methods, we propose a variable selection method that are useful for the undecided inference using logistic regression models.
