Scalable Bayesian Conformal Inference for High-Dimensional Spatiotemporal Zero-Inflated Count Data (English)
[ Abstract ]
I will present a Bayesian framework for spatiotemporal count data with excess zeros, overdispersion, and ultrahigh-dimensional covariates. The model combines zero-inflated negative binomial regression, TPBN shrinkage priors for sparse fixed effects, graph-Laplacian or SPDE-type spatial random effects, smooth global time effects, and unit-specific Ornstein--Uhlenbeck SDE random effects. Pólya--Gamma augmentation yields a conditionally Gaussian structure, supporting both blocked Gibbs sampling and scalable structured variational inference. I will also discuss split conformal calibration for discrete predictive sets and an auxiliary LAQ/QMLE perspective for the OU component. Simulation studies and a measles surveillance analysis illustrate calibrated prediction and recovery of latent spatiotemporal structure.
