Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms are a workhorse of probabilistic modeling and inference, but are difficult to debug, and are prone to silent failure if implemented naively. We outline several strategies for testing the correctness of MCMC algorithms.

Detecting recombination with MCMC [PDF]
Abstract Motivation: We present a statistical method for detecting recombination, whose objective is to accurately locate the recombinant breakpoints in DNA sequence alignments of small numbers of taxa (4 or 5). Our approach explicitly models the sequence of phylogenetic tree topologies along a multiple sequence alignment.

Markov chain Monte Carlo is the engine of modern Bayesian statistics, being used to approximate the posterior and derived quantities of interest. Despite this, the issue of how the output from a Markov chain is postprocessed and reported is often overlooked.

Parameter Estimation in Mass Balance Model Applied in Fixed Bed Adsorption Using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo Method [PDF]
In this work, a mathematical model is adopted to predict the breakthrough curve in a fixed bed adsorption process, neglecting radial dispersion effects in the bed, with properties such as interstitial velocity and porosity being constant, linear ...

On Finite and Non-Finite Bayesian Mixture Models
In this paper, a Bayesian paradigm of a mixture model with finite and non-finite components is expounded for a generic prior and likelihood that can be of any distributional random noise.
