Project: Part of NWO project Learning more from empirical data using prior knowledge at Utrecht University
Project running from: 1 September 2006 – 1 September 2011
Supervisors: Prof. dr H. Hoijtink, dr I.G. Klugkist

Summary of project

This project is part of a bigger research project about the use of prior knowledge, Bayesian statistics. Researchers using prior knowledge either end up with a set of competing models  that differ in the inequality constraints used, or with one or more constrained models, a null model and an unconstrained model. In this project several model selection criteria that can be used to  select the best model will be developed, studied and evaluated.
