Nov 6, 2015 at 21:23	comment	added	Xi'an		As far as I remember, Lhoste's invariance result is restricted to the transforms $\log\sigma$ and $\log p/(1-p)$ for parameters on $(0,\infty)$ and $(0,1)$, respectively. Other transforms from $(0,\infty)$ and $(0,1)$ to $\mathbb{R}$ will result in different priors.
