Structural changes in multivariate regression models
This study generalizes the work of chin choy and Broemeling (1980) who investigated the change in the regression parameters of univariate linear models. The marginal posterior distributions of the change point, the regression matrices,and the precision matrix are found with the use of a proper multivariate normal-Wishart distribution for the parameters of the model. A numerical study is undertaken in order to gain some insight into the effect that changes in sample size and certain parameter values have on these marginal posterior distributions.
