1 Unit 14: Introduction to the Use of Bayesian Methods for Reliability Data Ramón V. León Notes largely based on Statistical Methods for Reliability Data by W.Q. Meeker and L. A. Escobar, Wiley, 1998 and on their class notes. 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 1
2 Unit 14 Objectives Describe the use of Bayesian statistical methods to combine prior information with data to make inferences Explain the relationship between Bayesian methods and likelihood methods used in earlier chapters Discuss sources of prior information Describe useful computing methods for Bayesian methods Illustrate Bayesian methods for estimating reliability Illustrate Bayesian methods for prediction Compare Bayesian and likelihood methods under different assumptions about prior information Explain the dangers of using wishful thinking or expectations as prior information 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 2
3 Introduction Bayes methods augment likelihood with prior information A probability distribution is used to describe our prior beliefs about a parameter or set of parameters Sources of prior information Subjective Bayes: prior information subjective Empirical Bayes: prior information from past data Bayesian methods are closely related to likelihood methods 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 3

7 Some Comments on Posterior Distributions 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 7
8 Differences Between Bayesian and Frequentist Inference Nuisance parameters Bayes method use marginals Large-sample likelihood theory suggest maximization There are not important differences in large samples Interpretation Bayes methods justified in terms of probabilities Frequentist methods justified on repeated sampling and asymptotic theory 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 8
9 Sources of Prior Information Informative Past data Expert knowledge Non-informative (or approximately noninformative) Uniform over range of parameter values (or function of parameter) Other vague or diffuse priors 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 9
10 Proper Prior Distributions 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 10

12 Effect of Using Vague (or Diffuse) Prior Distributions 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 12
13 Eliciting or Specifying a Prior Distribution The elicitation of a meaningful joint prior distribution for vector parameters may be difficult The marginals may not completely determine the joint distribution Difficult to express/elicit dependences among parameters through a joint distribution. The standard parameterization may not have practical meaning General approach: choose an appropriate parameterization in which the priors for the parameters are approximately independent 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 13
14 Expert Opinion and Eliciting Prior Information Identify parameters that, from past experience (or data), can be specified approximately independently (e.g. for high reliability applications a small quantile and the Weibull shape parameter). Determine for which parameters there is useful informative prior information For parameters for which there is no useful information, determine the form and range of the vague prior (e.g., uniform over a wide interval) For parameters for which there is useful informative prior information, specify the form and range of the distribution (e.g., lognormal with 99.7% content between two specified points) 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 14

47 Caution on the Use of Prior Information In many applications, engineers really have useful, indisputable prior information. In such cases, the information should be integrated into the analysis We must beware of the use of wishful thinking as prior information. The potential for generating serious misleading conclusions is high. As with other inferential methods, when using Bayesian methods, it is important to do sensitivity analysis with respect to uncertain inputs to ones model (including the inputted prior information 9/26/2004 Stat 567: Unit 14 - Ramón León 47
