Bayesian reconstruction of contingency tables with partially categorized data
Patrick C. Gibbons, Edward Greenberg · Communication in Statistics- Theory and Methods · 1994
This paper suggests a Bayesian approach to the reconstruction of a 2 × 2 contingency table where some of the observations are only partially categorized and others are fully categorized. In contrast, most previous Bayesian and non-Bayesian analyses of the partially categorized data problem have been concerned with estimation of the parameters that generated the data. We show in an example that estimates may not be extremely sensitive to the weight placed on prior information relative to the sample data.
