Re: [ABE-L]: Fw: Bayesian Analysis - June 2009


Caros Redistas,

Aproveitando o email da Alexandra gostaria de enfatizar que
conheçi muito bem o Grupo de Bioestatística do MD Anderson Cancer
Center, em Houston, há cerca de 14 anos, sendo esse formado por
pessoas de excelente nível acadêmico, super-produtivos nas áreas
(teórica e aplicada) Fisheriana e Bayesiana.

Não é por acaso que esse centro médico recebe pacientes (a exemplo
do ilustre Vice-Presidente José Alencar) de todo o mundo, sendo
considerado top em pesquisas voltadas ao tratamento do câncer.

Cordiais Saudações,

Gauss


Quoting "Alexandra M. Schmidt" <alex@im.ufrj.br>:


Aos simpatizantes do paradigma bayesiano.

Um otimo final de semana a todos!

Abs
Alexandra

Subject: Bayesian Analysis - June 2009

2009, Volume 04, Number 02, pp. 191--412

This issue of Bayesian Analysis features
a discussion paper by
Guosheng Yin of the MD Anderson Cancer
Center, whose Division of
Quantitative Sciences has long been
recognized as a preeminent center
of Bayesian research, both in theory and
biomedical applications.
Dr. Yin develops a Bayesian generalized
method of moments (GMM)
method, intended to rival the very
popular generalized estimating
equations (GEE) methods in situations
where exact likelihood
calculations are difficult.  The GMM
approach is critically evaluated
both in the paper and in the
accompanying discussions by Drs. Ming-Hui
Chen and Sungduk Kim of the University
of Connecticut, and Dr. Ciprian
Crainiceanu of Johns Hopkins University.

The June 2009 issue includes the
following articles:
