Existence of matching priors on compact spaces
Haosui Duanmu, Daniel M. Roy, Aaron Smith · 2020-11-07 · via math.ST updates on arXiv.org

A matching prior at level $1-α$ is a prior such that an associated $1-α$ credible set is also a $1-α$ confidence set. We study the existence of matching priors for general families of credible regions. Our main result gives topological conditions under which matching priors for specific families of credible regions exist. Informally, we prove that, on compact parameter spaces, a matching prior exists if the so-called rejection-probability function is jointly continuous when we adopt the Wasserstein metric on priors. In light of this general result, we observe that typical families of credible regions, such as credible balls, highest-posterior density regions, quantiles, etc., fail to meet this topological condition. We show how to design approximate posterior credible balls and highest-posterior-density regions that meet these topological conditions, yielding matching priors. Finally, we evaluate a numerical scheme for computing approximately matching priors based on discretization and iteration. The proof of our main theorem uses tools from nonstandard analysis and establishes new results about the nonstandard extension of the Wasserstein metric that may be of independent interest.
