Sampling the Variance-Covariance Matrix\ud in the Bayesian Multivariate Probit Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper is concerned with the Bayesian estimation of a Multivariate Probit\ud model. In particular, this paper provides a method to sample the restricted variancecovariance\ud matrix directly from its conditional posterior density. The method allows\ud the application of a standard Gibbs sampling algorithm to sample from the posterior\ud density of ...
