On Poisson Graphical Models Eunho Yang Department of Computer Science Other avenues for modeling multivariate count-data include hierarchical models commonly used in spatial statistics [16]. In a qualitatively different line of work, Besag [17] discusses a tractable and natural multivariate The primary aim of this paper is to model the relationships between the risk factors and disease indicators for Dupuytren disease from the viewpoint of multivariate data analysis. In this regard, graphical models (Lauritzen, 1996) provide a potential way to decode the under-lying relationships between variables in multivariate data. Extensions to matrix-variate time series embed matrix normal graphs in dynamic models. Examples highlight questions of graphical model uncertainty, search and comparison in matrix data contexts. These models may be applied in a number of areas of multivariate analysis, time series and also spatial modelling. models, and we are interested in the graphical models within that family. • For hierarchical log-linear models,not all models are graphical. For example [12][13][23] is non-graphical, while [123] and [12][13] are graphical. • A common way to interpret a log-linear model is to?nd the smallest graphical model containing it, and interpret Bayesian inference for general Gaussian graphical models with application to multivariate lattice data Adrian Dobra, Alex Lenkoskiyand Abel Rodriguezz Abstract We introduce ef?cient Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for inference and model de-termination in multivariate and matrix-variate Gaussian graphical models. Our framework is We study maximum likelihood estimation in Gaussian graphical models from a geometric point of view. An algebraic elimination criterion allows us to find exact lower bounds on the number of observations needed to ensure that the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) exists with probability one.

In this section, we rst review graphical models for multivariate data in Section 2.1, then introduce graphical models for multivariate functional data in Section 2.2, and nally present the speci c case of Gaussian process graphical models in Section 2.3. 2.1 Review of Graph Theory and Gaussian Graphical Models Graphical Models (Oxford Statistical "This research monograph provides a comprehensive account of the theory of graphical models in multivariate statistics written by a leading expert in the field."-- Graphical Models in Applied Multivariate Paperback.

Gruber1, Mike West2 Duke University Abstract The recently introduced class of simultaneous graphical dynamic linear models (SGDLMs) de?nes an ability to scale on-line Bayesian analysis and forecasting to higher-dimensional time graphical models from a Bayesian perspective. It extends the theory of Dawid and Lauritzen (1993) from multivariate data to multivariate functional data. Existing graphical model approaches often naively apply multivariate methods to functional data after perfor
