Abstract

Higher-order asymptotic arguments for a scalar parameter of interest have been widely investigated for Bayesian inference. In this paper the theory of asymptotic expansions is discussed for a vector parameter of interest. A modified loglikelihood ratio is suggested, which can be used to derive approximate Bayesian credible sets with accurate frequentist coverage. Three examples are illustrated.
