MCMC‐driven importance samplers
Monte Carlo sampling methods are the standard procedure for approximating complicated integrals of multidimensional posterior distributions in Bayesian inference. In this work, we focus on the class of Layered Adaptive Importance Sampling (LAIS) scheme, which is a family of adaptive importance samplers where Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms are ...

Spbsampling: An R Package for Spatially Balanced Sampling
The basic idea underpinning the theory of spatially balanced sampling is that units closer to each other provide less information about a target of inference than units farther apart.

pexm: A JAGS Module for Applications Involving the Piecewise Exponential Distribution
In this study, we present a new module built for users interested in a programming language similar to BUGS to fit a Bayesian model based on the piecewise exponential (PE) distribution.

TI-Stan: Adaptively Annealed Thermodynamic Integration with HMC †
We present a novel implementation of the adaptively annealed thermodynamic integration technique using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC). Thermodynamic integration with importance sampling and adaptive annealing is an especially useful method for estimating ...

MCMC and GLMs for estimating regression parameters: Evidence from non-life Egyptian insurance sector [PDF]
Purpose – The purpose of this study is to estimate the linear regression parameters using two alternative techniques. First technique is to apply the generalized linear model (GLM) and the second technique is the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method ...

Globally Centered Autocovariances in MCMC [PDF]
Autocovariances are a fundamental quantity of interest in Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations with autocorrelation function (ACF) plots being an integral visualization tool for performance assessment. Unfortunately, for slow-mixing Markov chains, the empirical autocovariance can highly underestimate the truth.

MCMC METHODS FOR DIFFUSION BRIDGES [PDF]
We present and study a Langevin MCMC approach for sampling nonlinear diffusion bridges. The method is based on recent theory concerning stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) reversible with respect to the target bridge, derived by applying the Langevin idea on the bridge pathspace.
