A hybrid adaptive MCMC algorithm in function spaces
The preconditioned Crank-Nicolson (pCN) method is a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) scheme, specifically designed to perform Bayesian inferences in function spaces. Unlike many standard MCMC algorithms, the pCN method can preserve the sampling efficiency

Using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for estimating parameters with gravitational radiation data [PDF]
We present a Bayesian approach to the problem of determining parameters for coalescing binary systems observed with laser interferometric detectors. By applying a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm, specifically the Gibbs sampler, we demonstrate ...

Phylogenetic Stochastic Mapping without Matrix Exponentiation
Phylogenetic stochastic mapping is a method for reconstructing the history of trait changes on a phylogenetic tree relating species/organisms carrying the trait. State-of-the-art methods assume that the trait evolves according to a continuous-time Markov

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.

Bayesian Estimation of Mixed Multinomial Logit Models: Advances and Simulation-Based Evaluations
Variational Bayes (VB) methods have emerged as a fast and computationally-efficient alternative to Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for scalable Bayesian estimation of mixed multinomial logit (MMNL) models.

Sticky proposal densities for adaptive MCMC methods [PDF]
Monte Carlo (MC) methods are commonly used in Bayesian signal processing to address complex inference problems. The performance of any MC scheme depends on the similarity between the proposal (chosen by the user) and the target (which depends on the problem).

Fast Compression of MCMC Output
We propose cube thinning, a novel method for compressing the output of an MCMC (Markov chain Monte Carlo) algorithm when control variates are available. It allows resampling of the initial MCMC sample (according to weights derived from control variates),

A Bayesian approach on asymmetric heavy tailed mixture of factor analyzer
A Mixture of factor analyzer (MFA) model is a powerful tool to reduce the number of free parameters in high-dimensional data through the factor-analyzer technique based on the covariance matrices.
