Variable Transformation to Obtain Geometric Ergodicity in the Random-walk Metropolis Algorithm

A random-walk Metropolis sampler is geometrically ergodic if its equilibrium density is super-exponentially light and satisfies a curvature condition (Jarner and Hansen, 2000). Many applications, including Bayesian analysis with conjugate priors of logistic and Poisson regression and of log-linear models for categorical data result in posterior distributions that are not super-exponentially lig...

On the Geometric Ergodicity of Metropolis-Hastings Algorithms

Abstract Under a compactness assumption, we show that a φ-irreducible and aperiodic MetropolisHastings chain is geometrically ergodic if and only if its rejection probability is bounded away from unity. In the particular case of the Independence Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, we obtain that the whole spectrum of the induced operator is contained in (and in many cases equal to) the essential ran...

A guided walk Metropolis algorithm

The random walk Metropolis algorithm is a simple Markov chain Monte Carlo scheme which is frequently used in Bayesian statistical problems. We propose a guided walk Metropolis algorithm which suppresses some of the random walk behavior in the Markov chain. This alternative algorithm is no harder to implement than the random walk Metropolis algorithm, but empirical studies show that it performs ...

SPDE Limits of the Random Walk Metropolis Algorithm in High Dimensions

Mathematics Institute Warwick University CV4 7AL, UK e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Diffusion limits of MCMC methods in high dimensions provide a useful theoretical tool for studying efficiency. In particular they facilitate precise estimates of the number of steps required to explore the target measure, in stationarity, as a function of the dimension of the state space. However, to...
