What Is Markov Chain Monte Carlo? Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a powerful technique used in statistics and various scientific fields to sample from complex probability distributions. It is ...
The Annals of Statistics, Vol. 39, No. 2 (April 2011), pp. 673-701 (29 pages) The random numbers driving Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation are usually modeled as independent U (0, 1) random ...
Advances in plant imaging and computer vision have transformed agriculture and biology by enabling continuous and objective trait quantification. However, monitoring large plant populations or ...
In this article we discuss the problem of assessing the performance of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms on the basis of simulation output. In essence, we extend the original ideas of Gelman ...
