Title: Bayesian Regression Modeling of 0-1 Data Having Boundary Values
Author(s): Eugene D Hahn*

Keywords: Proportion data; Finite mixture modeling; Bayesian inference; Markov chain Monte Carlo
Abstract:

Regression modeling of percentages or normalized rates occurs in a variety of fields. Most long-standing techniques, however, are hampered by the presence of boundary values of zero or one. Boundary-inflated likelihood functions are one way of addressing this issue. However these approaches treat boundary values as arising independently from non-boundary values. We instead examine continuous regression modeling of proportions with boundary values using functionals of beta and triangular distributions.
