Abstract:

Various popular Bayesian model selection criteria, such as those based on the conditional predictive ordinates, are based on the general notion of one-deleted cross-validation. These criteria can often be estimated from Markov chain samples with reasonable ease. The Deviance Information Criterion (DIC) is another popular model selection criterion We investigate the performance of these model selection criteria in detecting the correct model and compare them with other competing criteria. Furthermore, the insight of Highest Posterior Model is also discussed.
