Bayesian Inference with Measurement Error

Bayesian inference with measurement error extends the standard Bayesian framework to situations where one or more covariates or outcomes are observed with noise or misclassification. By treating the true unobserved values as latent variables and assigning them priors, the model jointly estimates the true exposure distribution and the structural parameters of interest, propagating all uncertainty through the posterior.
