The flexibility of the Bayesian approach to account for covariates with measurement error is combined with semiparametric regression models. We consider a class of continuous, discrete and mixed univariate response distributions with potentially all parameters depending on a structured additive predictor. Markov chain Monte Carlo enables a modular and numerically efficient implementation of Bayesian measurement error correction based on the imputation of unobserved error-free covariate values…

Bayesian Gaussian distributional regression models for more efficient norm estimation
A test score on a psychological test is usually expressed as a normed score, representing its position relative to test scores in a reference population. These typically depend on predictor(s) such…

Bayesian Smoothing and Regression Splines for Measurement Error Problems
TLDR
Bayesian approaches to modeling a flexible regression function when the predictor variable is measured with error are described and the frequentist mean squared error properties of the fully Bayesian method are better than those of ICM and also of previously proposed frequentist methods, at least in the examples.
Bayesian semiparametric regression in the presence of conditionally heteroscedastic measurement and regression errors
TLDR
Bayesian semiparametric methodology based on mixtures of B-splines and mixtures induced by Dirichlet processes that relaxes restrictive assumptions about the density of the covariate and the densities of the regression and the measurement errors and vastly outperforms existing methods.

We propose a unified Bayesian approach for multivariate structured additive distributional regression analysis comprising a huge class of continuous, discrete and latent multivariate response…
Multivariate Fay–Herriot Bayesian estimation of small area means under functional measurement error
TLDR
A Bayesian analysis of a multivariate Fay–Herriot model with functional measurement error is presented, allowing for both joint modelling of related characteristics and accounting for random observation error in some of the covariates.
Bayesian analysis of measurement error models using integrated nested Laplace approximations
TLDR
It is shown how the most common approaches to adjust for ME, the classical and the Berkson ME, fit into this framework, which is achieved through a reformulation with augmented pseudo‐observations and a suitable extension of the latent Gaussian field.
BayesX: Analyzing Bayesian Structural Additive Regression Models
TLDR
The capabilities of the free software package BayesX for estimating regression models with structured additive predictor based on MCMC inference are described, which extends the capabilities of existing software for semiparametric regression included in S-PLUS, SAS, R or Stata.
