For each datum, the uncertainty is captured with a given discrete probability distribution over the groups. Such situations arise, for example, in the use of Bayesian imputation methods to assess race and ethnicity disparities with certain insurance, health, and financial data. A widely used method to implement this assessment is the Bayesian Improved Surname Geocoding (BISG) method which assigns a discrete probability over six race/ethnicity groups to an individual given the individual’s surname and address location. Using a Bayesian framework and Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling from the joint posterior distribution of the group means, the probability of a disparity hypothesis is estimated. Four methods are developed and compared with an illustrative data set. Three of these methods are implemented in an R-code and one method in WinBUGS. These methods are programed for any number of groups between two and six inclusive. All the codes are provided in the appendices.展开更多

Iterated function systems with condensation, can be considered infinite iterated function systems. Infinite iterated function systems on compact metric spaces were studied. Using the properties of Banach limit and uniform contractiveness, it was proved that the random iterating algorithms for infinite iterated function systems on compact metric spaces-satisfy ergodicity. So the random iterating algorithms for iterated function systems with condensation satisfy ergodicity, too.展开更多
