Since the low-frequency response becomes much richer in the Laplace mixed domains, one novel Bayesian impedance inversion approach in the complex Laplace mixed domains is established in this study to solve the model dependency problem. The derivation of a Laplace mixed-domain formula of the Robinson convolution is the first step in our work. With this formula, the Laplace seismic spectrum, the wavelet spectrum and time-domain reflectivity are joined together. Next, to improve inversion stability, the object inversion function accompanied by the initial constraint of the linear increment model is launched under a Bayesian framework. The likelihood function and prior probability distribution can be combined together by Bayesian formula to calculate the posterior probability distribution of subsurface parameters. By achieving the optimal solution corresponding to maximum posterior probability distribution, the low-frequency background of subsurface parameters can be obtained successfully. Then, with the regularization constraint of estimated low frequency in the Laplace mixed domains, multi-scale Bayesian inversion inthe pure frequency domain is exploited to obtain the absolute model parameters. The effectiveness, anti-noise capability and lateral continuity of Laplace mixed-domain inversion are illustrated by synthetic tests. Furthermore,one field case in the east of China is discussed carefully with different input frequency components and different inversion algorithms. This provides adequate proof to illustrate the reliability improvement in low-frequency estimation and resolution enhancement of subsurface parameters, in comparison with conventional Bayesian inversion in the frequency domain.展开更多

The noise-free wavelet coefficients are estimated accurately. Experimental results show that the algorithm proposed is superior to the refined Lee filter, wavelet soft thresbolding shrinkage and SWT shrinkage algorithms in terms of smoothing effects and edges preservation.展开更多

In this study, we first explore two Bayesian-based methods: ensemble adjustment Kalman filter(EAKF) and sequential importance resampling particle filter(SIR-PF), using a well-known nonlinear and non-Gaussian model(Lorenz '63 model). The EAKF, which is a deterministic scheme of the ensemble Kalman filter(En KF), performs better than the classical(stochastic) En KF in a general framework. Comparison between the SIR-PF and the EAKF reveals that the former outperforms the latter if ensemble size is so large that can avoid the filter degeneracy, and vice versa. The impact of the probability density functions and effective ensemble sizes on assimilation performances are also explored. On the basis of comparisons between the SIR-PF and the EAKF, a mixture filter, called ensemble adjustment Kalman particle filter(EAKPF), is proposed to combine their both merits. Similar to the ensemble Kalman particle filter, which combines the stochastic En KF and SIR-PF analysis schemes with a tuning parameter, the new mixture filter essentially provides a continuous interpolation between the EAKF and SIR-PF. The same Lorenz '63 model is used as a testbed, showing that the EAKPF is able to overcome filter degeneracy while maintaining the non-Gaussian nature, and performs better than the EAKF given limited ensemble size.展开更多

摘要This paper deals with the Bayesian estimation of Shannon entropy for the generalized inverse exponential distribution.Assuming that the observed samples are taken from the upper record ranked set sampling(URRSS)and upper record values(URV)schemes.Formulas of Bayesian estimators are derived depending on a gamma prior distribution considering the squared error,linear exponential and precautionary loss functions,in addition,we obtain Bayesian credible intervals.The random-walk Metropolis-Hastings algorithm is handled to generate Markov chain Monte Carlo samples from the posterior distribution.Then,the behavior of the estimates is examined at various record values.The output of the study shows that the entropy Bayesian estimates under URRSS are more convenient than the other estimates under URV in the majority of the situations.Also,the entropy Bayesian estimates perform well as the number of records increases.The obtained results validate the usefulness and efficiency of the URV method.Real data is analyzed for more clarifying purposes which validate the theoretical results.

摘要Bayesian estimation theory provides a general approach for the state estimate of linear or nonlinear and Gaussian or non-Gaussian systems. In this study, we first explore two Bayesian-based methods: ensemble adjustment Kalman filter(EAKF) and sequential importance resampling particle filter(SIR-PF), using a well-known nonlinear and non-Gaussian model(Lorenz '63 model). The EAKF, which is a deterministic scheme of the ensemble Kalman filter(En KF), performs better than the classical(stochastic) En KF in a general framework. Comparison between the SIR-PF and the EAKF reveals that the former outperforms the latter if ensemble size is so large that can avoid the filter degeneracy, and vice versa. The impact of the probability density functions and effective ensemble sizes on assimilation performances are also explored. On the basis of comparisons between the SIR-PF and the EAKF, a mixture filter, called ensemble adjustment Kalman particle filter(EAKPF), is proposed to combine their both merits. Similar to the ensemble Kalman particle filter, which combines the stochastic En KF and SIR-PF analysis schemes with a tuning parameter, the new mixture filter essentially provides a continuous interpolation between the EAKF and SIR-PF. The same Lorenz '63 model is used as a testbed, showing that the EAKPF is able to overcome filter degeneracy while maintaining the non-Gaussian nature, and performs better than the EAKF given limited ensemble size.

摘要This paper considers the Bayesian and expected Bayesian(E-Bayesian) estimations of the parameter and reliability function for competing risk model from Gompertz distribution under Type-I progressively hybrid censoring scheme(PHCS). The estimations are obtained based on Gamma conjugate prior for the parameter under squared error(SE) and Linex loss functions. The simulation results are provided for the comparison purpose and one data set is analyzed.
摘要This study examines the relationship between macroeconomic variables and stock price indices of four prominent OPEC oil-exporting members.Bayesian model averaging(BMA)and regularized linear regression(RLR)are employed to address uncertainties arising from different estimation models and variable selection.Jointness is utilized to determine the nature of relationships among variable pairs.The case study spans macroeconomic variables and stock prices from 1996 to 2018.BMA findings reveal a strong positive association between stock price indices and both consumer price index(CPI)and broad money growth in each analyzed OPEC country.Additionally,the study suggests a weak negative correlation between OPEC oil prices and the stock price index.RLR results align with BMA analysis,offering insights valuable for policymakers and international wealth managers.

摘要This paper develops a new method, named E-Bayesian estimation method, to estimate the reliability parameters. The E-Bayesian estimation method of the reliability are derived for the zero-failure data from the product with Binomial distribution. Firstly, for the product reliability, the definitions of E-Bayesian estimation were given, and on the base, expressions of the E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation of the products reliability was given. Secondly, discuss properties of the E-Bayesian estimation. Finally, the new method is applied to a real zero-failure data set, and as can be seen, it is both efficient and easy to operate.
摘要In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the order ofINAR(Q) model on the basis of the Bayesian estimation theory. The Bayesian es-timator for the order is given with respect to a squared-error loss function. The consistency of the estimator is discussed. The results of a simulation study for the estimation method are presented.
