我们提出了一个简单的方法来计算贝叶斯因子。该方法源于观察,一般来说,贝叶斯计量器可以写为称为Savage-Dickey密度比和校正因子的量的乘积:这两项很容易从后验模拟中估计。在某些情况下,可以在不评估可能性的情况下进行这些计算。
We present a simple method for computing Bayes factors. The method derives from observing that in general, a Bayes meter can be written as the product of a quantity called the Savage-Dickey density ratio and a correction factor: both terms are easily estimated from posterior simulation. In some cases it is possible to do these computations without ever evaluating the likelihood.
