Laplace Approximation

Laplace-approksimationen er en klassisk analytisk teknik, der erstatter en intractable posterior-fordeling med en multivariat Gaussisk fordeling centreret ved posterior-mode, idet krumningen af log-posterior ved denne mode anvendes til at fastsætte kovariansen. Formelt udarbejdet for Bayesiansk statistik af Tierney og Kadane (1986) i deres skelsættende artikel i Journal of the American Statistical Association, udgør den et hurtigt, deterministisk alternativ til Markov chain Monte Carlo og danner den matematiske kerne af Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations (INLA).
