Reference Posterior Distributions for Bayesian Inference. Bernardo, J. M. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series B (Methodological), 41(2):113–128, January, 1979. ![Reference Posterior Distributions for Bayesian Inference [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper doi abstract bibtex A procedure is proposed to derive reference posterior distributions which approximately describe the inferential content of the data without incorporating any other information. More explicitly, operational priors, derived from informationtheoretical considerations, are used to obtain reference posteriors which may be expected to approximate the posteriors which would have been obtained with the use of proper priors describing vague initial states of knowledge. The results obtained unify and generalize some previous work and seem to overcome criticisms to which this has been subject.
