Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) is a Bayesian approach to flexible non-linear regression which has been shown to be competitive with the best modern predictive methods such as those based on bagging and boosting. BART offers some advantages. For example, the stochastic search Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm can provide a more complete search of the model space and variation across MCMC draws can capture the level of uncertainty in the usual Bayesian way. The BART prior is robust in that reasonable results are typically obtained with a default prior specification. However, the publicly available implementation of the BART algorithm in the R package BayesTree is not fast enough to be considered interactive with over a thousand observations, and is unlikely to even run with 50,000 to 100,000 observations. In this paper we show how the BART algorithm may be modified and then computed using single program, multiple data (SPMD) parallel computation implemented using the Message Passing Interface (MPI) library. The approach scales nearly linearly in the number of processor cores, enabling the practitioner to perform statistical inference on massive datasets. Our approach can also handle datasets too massive to fit on any single data repository.
We develop a Bayesian sum-of-trees model where each tree is constrained by a regularization prior to be a weak learner, and fitting and inference are accomplished via an iterative Bayesian backfitting MCMC algorithm that generates samples from a post

In many longitudinal studies, the covariate and response are often intermittently observed at irregular, mismatched and subject-specific times. How to deal with such data when covariate and response are observed asynchronously is an often raised prob
Many time-to-event studies are complicated by the presence of competing risks. Such data are often analyzed using Cox models for the cause specific hazard function or Fine-Gray models for the subdistribution hazard. In practice regression relationshi
