We propose an automatic Bayesian approach to the selection of covariates and their penalised splines transformations in generalised additive models. Specification of a default, hyper-g prior for the model parameters and a multiplicity-correction prior for the models themselves is crucial for this task. We introduce the methodology in the normal model and extend it to non-normal exponential families. Two applications from the literature illustrate the proposed approach. An efficient implementation is available in an R-package.
