Metropolis-Hastings algorithm in joint-attention naming game: experimental semiotics study [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2023
We explore the emergence of symbols during interactions between individuals through an experimental semiotic study. Previous studies have investigated how humans organize symbol systems through communication using artificially designed subjective ...

Efficient Quantum Walk Circuits for Metropolis-Hastings Algorithm [PDF]

open access: goldQuantum, 2020
We present a detailed circuit implementation of Szegedy's quantization of the Metropolis-Hastings walk. This quantum walk is usually defined with respect to an oracle.

Hastings-Metropolis algorithm on Markov chains for small-probability estimation*** [PDF]

open access: diamondESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2015
Shielding studies in neutron transport, with Monte Carlo codes, yield challenging problems of small-probability estimation. The particularity of these studies is that the small probability to estimate is formulated in terms of the ...

A multiple-try Metropolis-Hastings algorithm with tailored proposals [PDF]

open access: greenComputational statistics (Zeitschrift), 2018
We present a new multiple-try Metropolis-Hastings algorithm designed to be especially beneficial when a tailored proposal distribution is available. The algorithm is based on a given acyclic graph $G$, where one of the nodes in $G$, $k$ say, contains the

The Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, a handy tool for the practice of environmental model estimation: illustration with biochemical oxygen demand data

open access: diamondCybergeo, 2001
Environmental scientists often face situations where: (i) stimulus-response relationships are non-linear; (ii) data is rare or imprecise; (iii) facts are uncertain and stimulus-responses relationships are questionable.In this paper, we focus on the first

Finite adaptation and multistep moves in the metropolis-hastings algorithm for variable selection in genome-wide association analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2012
High-dimensional datasets with large amounts of redundant information are nowadays available for hypothesis-free exploration of scientific questions. A particular case is genome-wide association analysis, where variations in the genome are searched for ...

Fully Adaptive Gaussian Mixture Metropolis-Hastings Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2013
Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods are widely used in signal processing and communications for statistical inference and stochastic optimization. In this work, we introduce an efficient adaptive Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to draw samples from generic ...

Adaptive Mixture of Student-t Distributions as a Flexible Candidate Distribution for Efficient Simulation: The R Package AdMit [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2008
This paper presents the R package AdMit which provides flexible functions to approximate a certain target distribution and to efficiently generate a sample of random draws from it, given only a kernel of the target density function.
