Bayesian Analysis in Data Cubes - Washington University in St
... Carlo (MCMC) methods such as Gibbs samplers and Metropolis algorithms are often employed to evaluate the posterior mean. However, these algorithms are usually slow especially for large data sets, which makes the OLAP processing based on these algorithms infeasible. Furthermore, these MCMC algorithms ...

churn prediction in the telecommunications sector using support
... For the data preparation and model building part we decided to use IBM SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solutions), a statistical and data mining software package used to build predictive models [14]. By exploring the data we discovered that this is a complete dataset, meaning that for each sub ...

The Contest Between Parsimony and Likelihood
... Two of the main methods that biologists now use to infer phylogenetic relationships are maximum likelihood and maximum parsimony. The method of maximum likelihood seeks to find the tree topology that confers the highest probability on the observed characteristics of tip species. The method of maximu ...
