Asymptotic frequentist coverage properties of Bayesian credible sets for sieve priors
- Abstract:
-
We investigate the frequentist coverage properties of (certain) Bayesian credible sets in a general, adaptive, nonparametric framework. It is well known that the construction of adaptive and honest confidence sets is not possible in general. To overcome this problem (in context of sieve type of priors), we introduce an extra assumption on the functional parameters, the so-called “general polished tail” condition. We then show that under standard assumptions, both the hierarchical and empirica...
