Bayesian parameter inference by Markov chain Monte Carlo with hybrid fitness measures: theory and test in apoptosis signal transduction network. [PDF]
When model parameters in systems biology are not available from experiments, they need to be inferred so that the resulting simulation reproduces the experimentally known phenomena. For the purpose, Bayesian statistics with Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)

Bayesian inference on reliability parameter with non-identical-component strengths for Rayleigh distribution [PDF]
In this paper, we delve into Bayesian inference related to multi-component stress-strength parameters, focusing on non-identical component strengths within a two-parameter Rayleigh distribution under the progressive first failure censoring scheme.

Estimating the Volume of the Solution Space of SMT(LIA) Constraints by a Flat Histogram Method
The satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) problem is to decide the satisfiability of a logical formula with respect to a given background theory. This work studies the counting version of SMT with respect to linear integer arithmetic (LIA), termed SMT(LIA)

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 ...

A fast algorithm for BayesB type of prediction of genome-wide estimates of genetic value
Genomic selection uses genome-wide dense SNP marker genotyping for the prediction of genetic values, and consists of two steps: (1) estimation of SNP effects, and (2) prediction of genetic value based on SNP genotypes and estimates of their effects.

Preconditioning Markov Chain Monte Carlo Simulations Using Coarse-Scale Models [PDF]
We study the preconditioning of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods using coarse-scale models with applications to subsurface characterization. The purpose of preconditioning is to reduce the fine-scale computational cost and increase the acceptance ...
