## Abstract In this paper, we describe a general method for constructing the posterior distribution of the mean and volatility of the return of an asset satisfying d__S__=__S__d__X__ for some simple models of __X__. Our framework takes as inputs the prior distributions of the parameters of the stoc

## Abstract We generalize the specifications used in previous studies of the effect of body mass index (BMI) on earnings by allowing the potentially endogenous BMI variable to enter the log wage equation nonparametrically. We introduce a Bayesian posterior simulator for fitting our model that permi

When a statistical estimation is carried out with a model that has layered parameters such as a neural network, the behavior of the generalization error and the optimum model design method are unknown, since unlike the regular model, the asymptotic behavior of the estimated parameters is not clear.
