Empirical Bayesian Learning in AR Graphical Models

英文摘要：

We address the problem of learning graphical models which correspond to high dimensional autoregressive stationary stochastic processes. A graphical model describes the conditional dependence relations among the components of a stochastic process and represents an important tool in many fields. We propose an empirical Bayes estimator of sparse autoregressive graphical models and latent-variable autoregressive graphical models. Numerical experiments show the benefit to take this Bayesian perspective for learning these types of graphical models.
