Bayesian analysis of the change-point problem for directional data
(Journal of Applied Statistics, 2008-11-11)
In this paper, we discuss a simple fully Bayesian analysis of the change-point problem for the directional data in the parametric framework with von Mises or circular normal distribution as the underlying distribution. We ...
A likelihood integrated method for exploratory graphical analysis of change-point problem with directional data
(Communications in Statistics, Theory and Methods, 2008-11-11)
