New Bayesian method improves derivative estimation for infinite-dimensional models

A new research paper published on arXiv details advancements in Bayesian derivative estimation for infinite-dimensional exponential families. The study introduces a novel approach using the Wasserstein distance, building upon previous work by Dolera et al. (2024). The findings demonstrate that smoothness-matching priors can achieve optimal posterior contraction rates in Sobolev norms, applicable to various models including density estimation, Poisson intensity estimation, and the Gaussian white-noise model.

    Posterior contraction rates in Sobolev norms and Bayesian derivative estimation for infinite-dimensional exponential families

    arXiv:2608.11130v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study posterior contraction in positive-order Sobolev norms and Bayesian derivative estimation for infinite-dimensional exponential families. We embed the natural parameter in a Hilbert scale and model it via a standard Gaussia…
