Comparison of two Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods
As the world advances, statisticians/mathematicians are being involved into more and more complex surveys for the development of society and human beings. Consequently, these complex survey data requires complicated and high-dimensional models for final analysis. We need sophisticated and efficient statistical/mathematical tools for estimation and prediction of these models. Frequently, we simu...
متن کاملMarkov Chain Monte Carlo
Markov chain Monte Carlo is an umbrella term for algorithms that use Markov chains to sample from a given probability distribution. This paper is a brief examination of Markov chain Monte Carlo and its usage. We begin by discussing Markov chains and the ergodicity, convergence, and reversibility thereof before proceeding to a short overview of Markov chain Monte Carlo and the use of mixing time...
متن کاملMarkov Chain Monte Carlo
This paper gives a brief introduction to Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods, which offer a general framework for calculating difficult integrals. We start with the basic theory of Markov chains and build up to a theorem that characterizes convergent chains. We then discuss the MetropolisHastings algorithm.
متن کاملMarkov chain Monte Carlo
One of the simplest and most powerful practical uses of the ergodic theory of Markov chains is in Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Suppose we wish to simulate from a probability density π (which will be called the target density) but that direct simulation is either impossible or practically infeasible (possibly due to the high dimensionality of π). This generic problem occurs in diverse scient...
متن کاملMultilevel factor analysis modelling using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation
A very general class of multilevel factor analysis and structural equation models is proposed which are derived from considering the concatenation of a series of building blocks that use sets of factor structures defined within the levels of a multilevel model. An MCMC estimation algorithm is proposed for this structure to produce parameter chains for point and interval estimates. A limited sim...
