Modeled along the truncated approach in Panigrahi (2016), selection-adjusted inference in a Bayesian regime is based on a selective posterior. Such a posterior is determined together by a generative model imposed on data and the selection…

Although Bayesian variable selection methods have been intensively studied, their routine use in practice has not caught up with their non-Bayesian counterparts such as Lasso, likely due to difficulties in both computations and…
Sparseness of the regression coefficient vector is often a desirable property, since, among other benefits, sparseness improves interpretability. In practice, many true regression coefficients might be negligibly small, but non-zero, which…
