Abstract:
|
We study the problem of estimating the intensity function of an inhomogeneous Poisson process with a change?point using non?parametric Bayesian methods. A Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm is proposed to obtain estimates of the intensity function and the change?point. The approach is used to model terrorist attacks in a number of countries over time.
