Nonparametric Bayesian methods for one-dimensional diffusion models

In this paper we review recently developed methods for nonparametric Bayesian inference for one-dimensional diffusion models. We discuss different possible prior distributions, computational issues, and asymptotic results

On nonparametric estimation of a mixing density via the predictive recursion algorithm

Nonparametric estimation of a mixing density based on observations from the corresponding mixture is a challenging statistical problem. This paper surveys the literature on a fast, recursive estimator based on the predictive recursion algorithm. After introducing the algorithm and giving a few examples, I summarize the available asymptotic convergence theory, describe an important semiparametric extension, and highlight two interesting applications. I conclude with a discussion of several recent developments in this area and some open problems.Comment: 22 pages, 5 figures. Comments welcome at https://www.researchers.one/article/2018-12-
