2 Session 5x: Bonus material q Bayesian analysis q Missing data q Snowball sampled data q Fitting ERGM to LARGE data sets q Spatial Embedded networks q Multilevel ERGM q Longitudinal ERGM
3 Bayesian analysis in MPNet
4 Bayesian inference (in MPNet): Fishermen Bayesian estimation Go back into Select parameters, start afresh by clearing all and then select edge, ASA, ATA BE PATIENT. Bayesian estimation can be slower (we are working on automation).
5 Quick MCMC settings for Bayesian We need a slightly large multiplication factor than for non- Bayesian estimation Maximum lag should be chosen to be roughly the lag where SACF is (in order for ESS to be correct) roughly 2-4 If model is good we can use Pre- tuning only to get good initial values The objective is to get high acceptance rate around.85 Run number of small MCMC sample sizes and press update When pre- tuning not too bad check Nonconditional simulation and press update (the latter to start in a better place and get proposal covariance) The objective is to get acceptance rate around.25 and SACF around lag 2 small and ESS large If acceptance rate too small (say smaller than.5) reduce Proposal scaling (e.g. divide by 2); if too large (say greater than.45) increase Proposal scaling (e.g. multiply by 2) Once SACF at large lags (say or 2) is low (say, around.) you can Improve the ESS by making the MCMC sample size bigger If you have a good run and want the perfect run read in Covariance file
6 Bayesian analysis in MPNet ts(output[, k + ]) Set multiplication factor to 8 Scale.5 MCMC sample size Max lag 2 Scaled identity After run EdgeA Time Note that Inverse D matrix is diagonal 2 6 ts(output[, k + ]) ASA 2 6 Time ts(output[, k + ]) ATA 2 6 Time This run just got us close to where we want to be Inverse D matrix: Acceptance rate:.42 Estimation results Effects Lambda PostMean Stddev EdgeA * ASA ATA * SACF Effect 3 9 ESS(2) EdgeA ASA ATA
7 Bayesian analysis in MPNet Set multiplication factor to 8 Scale.5 MCMC sample size Max lag 2 Scaled identity After run Note that Inverse D matrix is diagonal Press Update MCMC sample size 55; Parameter burnin 5 Proposal scaling. Nonconditional simulation This run just got us close to where we want to be We want to draw values roughly here BUT more efficiently (by setting a better Proposal variance than the diagonal)
8 Bayesian analysis in MPNet ts(output[, k + ]) EdgeA 2 4 Time SACF for EdgeA ts(output[, k + ]) ASA 2 4 Time SACF for ASA ts(output[, k + ]) ATA 2 4 Time SACF for ATA - > It is moving around really well BUT it takes too small steps (acceptance ratio:.93) Inverse D matrix: ACF Re- run with longer moves ESS: 4 Set Proposal scaling.5 rerun ACF ESS: 2 ACF ESS: 4 Acceptance rate:.93 Estimation results Effects Lambda PostMean Stddev EdgeA * ASA ATA * SACF Effect 3 9 ESS(2) EdgeA ASA ATA
9 Bayesian analysis in MPNet ts(output[, k + ]) EdgeA 3 5 Time ts(output[, k + ]) ASA 3 5 Time ts(output[, k + ]) ATA 3 5 Time - > It is moving around really well AND it takes Nice LONG strides (acceptance ratio: Acceptance rate:.34 Estimation results Effects Lambda PostMean Stddev EdgeA * ASA ATA * ACF SACF for EdgeA ACF SACF for ASA ACF SACF for ATA SACF Effect 9 ESS(2) EdgeA ASA ATA ESS: 229 ESS: 22 ESS: 83 Effective sample size. We want these to be larger than 5, else the Stddev:s are misleading. Here, as acceptance rate GOOD, rerun the estimation with larger MCMC sample size Here SACF is almost zero allready at lag 3!!!
10 Bayesian analysis in MPNet The output file, [session name]_posterior_bayesian.txt contains the Bayesian posteriors. EdgeA Frequency Frequency Frequency ASA ATA ASA ATA EdgeA EdgeA
11 Missing data in MPNet
12 Session 4: More complex models q The datafile miss2.txt is an 85X85 randomly simulated matrix with a density of.2. This will be a matrix equivalent 2% missing data at random. q The datafile fish_miss2.txt is the fishermen data except that all the s in miss2.txt are set to zero. In other words, fish_miss2.txt can be regarded as the fishermen s network with 2% missing data (both s and s) q Note that to use the missing data estimation in MPNET, you need to have an indicator matrix with entered into every missing cell, and all missing cells in the original data have to be entered as o s.
13 Session 4: More complex models Our results Effects Lambda PostMean Stddev EdgeA * ASA ATA * In MPNET, under the Bayesian estimation tab: Enter the fish_miss2 file to be estimated Enter the miss2 as the missing indicators file, Select parameters and clear any previous parameter values (i.e. start from ) Conduct Bayesian estimation for an edge, AS and AT model. Use 3 as the MCMC sample size.
14 Session 4: More complex models Make sure no ME Are all zeros really zeros In principle valid for sampled data (admissible) MNAR impossible to check (but robustness can be assessed) Are missing data different than observed If attributes are missing we can use a similar technique of data- augmentation (not in Pnet yet)

30 Unobserved data: snowball sampling Making some (brave) assumptions (Handcock & Gile 2) we can fit an ERGM (Wang et al. 23) to snowball sampled networks Importance sampling MCMCMLE (Handcock & Gile 2) Stochastic approximation and the missing data principle (Orchard & Woodbury,972) (Koskinen & Snijders, 23) Bayesian data augmentation (Koskinen, Robins & Pattison, 2,23) (MPNet) Conditional MLE (Pattison, Robins, Snijders & Wang, 23)(SnowPNet)
31 Unobserved data: snowball sampling Bayesian data augmentation (Koskinen, Robins & Pattison, 2,23) (MPNet) Need to know N Need to simulate un-observed ties Time-consuming Conditional MLE (Pattison, Robins, Snijders & Wang, 23)(SnowPNet) No need to know N No need to simulate un-observed data properties of conditional MLE unclear
