Multiple-try Metropolis Hastings for modeling extreme PM10 data [PDF]
Awareness of catastrophic events brings the attention to work out the relationship of these events by using statistical analysis of Extreme Value Theory (EVT).

Abstract Bayesian estimation enables uncertainty quantification, but analytical implementation is often intractable. As an approximate approach, the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method is widely used, though it entails a high computational cost due to frequent evaluations of the likelihood function.

ABSTRACT High mammographic density is a well‐known risk factor for breast cancer and reduces the sensitivity of mammography‐based screening. While automated machine and deep learning‐based methods provide more consistent and precise measurements compared to subjective Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI‐RADS) assessments, they often fail to ...

Irreducibility and efficiency of ESIP to sample marker genotypes in large pedigrees with loops
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have been proposed to overcome computational problems in linkage and segregation analyses. This approach involves sampling genotypes at the marker and trait loci.

Metropolis-Hastings prefetching algorithms [PDF]
Prefetching is a simple and general method for single-chain parallelisation of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm based on the idea of evaluating the posterior in parallel and ahead of time.

Bayesian Inference for Joint Estimation Models Using Copulas to Handle Endogenous Regressors
ABSTRACT This study proposes a Bayesian approach for finite‐sample inference of the Gaussian copula endogeneity correction. Extant studies use frequentist inference, build on a priori computed estimates of marginal distributions of explanatory variables, and use bootstrapping to obtain standard errors. The proposed Bayesian approach facilitates precise

Levy process simulation by stochastic step functions
We study a Monte Carlo algorithm for simulation of probability distributions based on stochastic step functions, and compare to the traditional Metropolis/Hastings method.

A Tutorial on Bayesian Multi‐Study Factor Analysis With Applications in Nutrition and Genomics
ABSTRACT High‐dimensional data are crucial in biomedical research. Integrating such data from multiple studies is a critical process that relies on the choice of advanced statistical models, enhancing statistical power, reproducibility, and scientific insight compared to analyzing each study separately.
