Posterior concentration rates for mixtures of normals in random design regression

Abstract:

Previous works on location and location-scale mixtures of normals have shown different upper bounds on the posterior rates of contraction, either in a density estimation context or in nonlinear regression. In both cases, the observations were assumed not too spread by considering either the true density has light tails or the regression function has compact support. It has been conjectured that in a situation where the data are diffuse, location-scale mixtures may benefit from allowing a spat...
