Efficient Bayesian Inverse Modeling of Water Infiltration in Layered Soils
Modeling water movement in heterogeneous soils, e.g., layered soils, is an essential but challenging task that requires accurate estimation of multiple sets of soil hydraulic parameters.

Orthogonal parallel MCMC methods for sampling and optimization [PDF]
Monte Carlo (MC) methods are widely used for Bayesian inference and optimization in statistics, signal processing and machine learning. A well-known class of MC methods are Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms. In order to foster better exploration of the state space, specially in high-dimensional applications, several schemes employing multiple ...

Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for state-space models with point process observations [PDF]
This letter considers how a number of modern Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods can be applied for parameter estimation and inference in state-space models with point process observations.

Phylogenetic estimation is, and has always been, a complex endeavor. Estimating a phylogenetic tree involves evaluating many possible solutions and possible evolutionary histories that could explain a set of observed data, typically by using a model of ...

Analysis of Alumni-Giving Behavior With MCMC Method
Alumni giving has become a main source of income for many colleges and universities in the United States. In this paper, we impose a dynamic linear model to predict the alumni-giving behavior by capturing the dynamic of the university-alumni interactions

In biology, information about interactions between the proteins or genes under study can be represented as a biological graph. A connected subgraph, whose vertices perform a common biological function, is called an active module.

Limit theorems for sequential MCMC methods [PDF]
AbstractBoth sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods (a.k.a. ‘particle filters’) and sequential Markov chain Monte Carlo (sequential MCMC) methods constitute classes of algorithms which can be used to approximate expectations with respect to (a sequence of) probability distributions and their normalising constants.

Point Cloud Registration Based on MCMC-SA ICP Algorithm
Point cloud registration is very important for workpiece positioning and error evaluation. Generally, the Iterative Closest Points (ICP) algorithm is always adopted as the first choice in fine registration, but requires a more appropriate initial ...

Longitudinal Data Analysis Based on Bayesian Semiparametric Method
A Bayesian semiparametric model framework is proposed to analyze multivariate longitudinal data. The new framework leads to simple explicit posterior distributions of model parameters.
