*Resumo*



A novel Bayesian nonparametric method is proposed for hierarchical
modelling on a set of related density functions, where grouped data in the
form of samples from each density function are available. Borrowing
strength across the groups is a major challenge in this context. To address
this problem, a hierarchically structured prior, defined over a set of
univariate density functions using convenient transformations of Gaussian
processes, is introduced. Inference is performed through approximate
Bayesian computation (ABC) via a novel functional regression adjustment.
The performance of the proposed method is illustrated via simulation
studies and an analysis of rural high school exam performance in Brazil.
