In the meta-analysis of clinical trials, usually the data of each trail summarized by one or more outcome measure estimates which reported along with their standard errors. In the case that summary data are multi-dimensional, usually, the data analysis will be performed in the form of a number of separated univariate analysis. In such a case the correlation between summary statistics would be ignored. In contrast, a multivariate meta-analysis model, use from these correlations synthesizes the outcomes, jointly to estimate the multiple pooled effects simultaneously. In this paper, we present a Nonparametric Bayesian bivariate random effect meta-analysis.

This paper reviews Bayesian Nonparametric methods and discusses how parametric predictive densities can be constructed using Nonparametric ideas.

Cognitive radio as a key technology is taken into consideration widely to cope with the shortage of spectrum in wireless networks. One of the major challenges to realization of CR networks is security. The most important of these threats is primary user emulation attack, thus malicious user attempts to send a signal same as primary user's signal to deceive secondary users and prevent them from sending signals in the spectrum holes. Meanwhile, causing traffic in CR network, malicious user obtains a frequency band to send their information. In this thesis, a method to identify primary user emulation attack is proposed. According to this method, primary users and malicious users are distinguished by clustering. In this method, the number of active users is recognized in the CR network by clustering. Indeed, by using Dirichlet process mixture model classification based on the Bayesian Nonparametric method, primary users are clustered. In addition, to achieve higher convergence rate, Chinese restaurant process method to initialize and non-uniform sampling is applied to select clusters parameter.

Nonlinear regression models have widespread applications across diverse scientific disciplines‎. ‎Achieving precise fitting of the optimal nonlinear model is essential‎, ‎taking into account the biases inherent in Bayesian optimal design‎. ‎This study introduces a Bayesian optimal design utilizing the Dirichlet process as a prior‎. ‎The Dirichlet process is a fundamental tool in exploring Nonparametric Bayesian inference‎, ‎providing multiple well-suited representations‎. ‎The research paper presents a novel one-parameter model‎, ‎termed the ``unit-exponential distribution"‎, ‎specifically designed for the unit interval‎. ‎Additionally‎, ‎a representation is employed to approximate the D-optimality criterion‎, ‎considering the Dirichlet process as a functional tool‎. ‎Through this approach‎, ‎the aim is to identify a Nonparametric Bayesian optimal design.

Introduction: Parkinson disease is a neurodegenerative disease that disrupts functional brain networks. Many neurodegenerative disorders are associated with changes in brain communication patterns. Resting-state functional connectivity studies can distinguish the topological structure of Parkinson patients from healthy individuals by analyzing patterns between different regions of the brain. Accordingly, the present study aimed to determine the brain topological features and functional connectivity in patients with Parkinson disease, using a Bayesian approach. Methods: The data of this study were downloaded from the open neuro site. These data include resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) of 11 healthy individuals and 11 Parkinson patients with mean ages of 64. 36 and 63. 73, respectively. An advanced Nonparametric Bayesian model was used to evaluate topological characteristics, including clustering of brain regions and correlation coefficient of the clusters. The significance of functional relationships based on each edge between the two groups was examined through false discovery rate (FDR) and network-based statistics (NBS) methods. Results: Brain connectivity results showed a major difference in terms of the number of regions in each cluster and the correlation coefficient between the patient and healthy groups. The largest clusters in the patient and control groups were 26 and 53 regions, respectively, with clustering correlation values of 0. 36 and 0. 26. Although there are 15 common areas across the two clusters, the intensity of the functional relationship between these areas was different in the two groups. Moreover, using NBS and FDR methods, no significant difference was observed for each edge between the patient and healthy groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion: The results of this study show a different topological configuration of the brain network between the patient and healthy groups, indicating changes in the functional relationship between a set of areas of the brain.

In this paper‎, ‎we study a Nonparametric Bayesian inference on the family of nonincreasing density functions on real positive data‎. ‎One interesting problem is the goodness of fit test in such a context‎. ‎In other words‎, ‎we consider Nonparametric Bayesian testing on the family of nonincreasing density in this domain‎. ‎So‎, ‎we define Nonparametric hypothesis testing and compare two different testing approaches‎. ‎The first approach is given based on the Bayes factor‎. ‎This approach is the well-known Bayesian approach for testing‎, ‎although its computation is complicated‎. ‎Decision-theoretic considerations with the loss function drive the second approach for a given distance‎. ‎This second approach has the advantage of considering the distance to the null hypothesis but needs the definition of a threshold‎. ‎When no threshold is known as a priori‎, ‎a possibility exists to calculate a p-value‎, ‎and the method becomes more complicated to compute‎. ‎We propose a hybrid algorithm to accelerate the computation of the p-value‎. ‎The comparison of both approaches is performed based on a simulation study.

Introduction: Today, according to the advancements in cancer treatment, a fraction of patients never experience an adverse event, such as death, even when the duration of the disease is prolonged. Cure models are used in the analysis of these types of diseases. In this study, we examined the survival of patients, the cure probability, and the affecting factors among breast cancer patients. Methods: We analyzed the data of 1, 247 breast cancer patients who referred to Motamed Jihad University Research Institute in Tehran between 1995 and 2013 and followed them up until 2018. Data analysis was done using R version 4. 3. 0 software to check the survival time of uncured patients and the cure rate and to identify the effective factors with the Bayesian estimation method by fitting the semi-Nonparametric smooth mixture cure model. Results: The results of this study showed that out of 1, 247 patients with breast cancer, 82. 8% of the patients were censored, and 17. 2% of the patients died. The cure rate was 58%, according to the Kaplan-Meier curve. Examining the factors affecting the death of patients showed that the patient's high weight, more advanced stages of the disease, involvement of lymph nodes, and breast-conserving surgery were effective on the time to death and short-term survival. Conclusion: Based on the results of this, there are several crucial prognostic factors associated with breast cancer that play a significant role in identifying high-risk patients and choosing the type of treatment in the short term.
