Estimating Item Response Theory Models Using Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods
The purpose of this ITEMS module is to provide an introduction to Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation for item response models. A brief description of Bayesian inference is followed by an overview of the various facets of MCMC algorithms, including discussion of prior specification, sampling procedures, and methods for evaluating chain convergence. Model comparison and fit issues in the ...

متن کاملAssessing parameter invariance in item response theory’s logistic two item parameter model: A Monte Carlo investigation
Statistical properties of the ability level estimate ( ) in item response theory (IRT) were investigated through a Monte Carlo investigation, based on data generated with a four cases multifactor design. Dichotomous items and the logistic two-parameter IRT model in a one-dimensional setting have been chosen. The estimation procedure was the marginalized Bayesian item parameters estimation and E...
متن کاملQuantum Monte Carlo studies of density functional theory
We review our variational quantum Monte Carlo (VMC) approach for evaluating the key quantities in the density functional theory of inhomogeneous many-electron systems, and describe the underlying simulation algorithm and its parallel implementation. We discuss the insights gained from our recent application of the method to the study of the density functional theory (DFT) of the strongly inhomo...
متن کاملMonte Carlo studies of matrix theory correlation functions.
We study correlation functions in (0+1)-dimensional maximally supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory, which represents the low-energy effective theory of D0-branes. In the large-N limit, the gauge-gravity duality predicts power-law behaviors in the infrared region for the two-point correlation functions of operators corresponding to supergravity modes. We evaluate such correlation functions on the ga...
