a vignette on Metropolis
Posted in Books, Kids, R, Statistics, Travel, University life with tags Columbia University, Introducing Monte Carlo Methods with R, Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, mixture, New York city, testing as mixture estimation, vignette on April 13, 2015 by xi'an
Over the past week, I wrote a short introduction to the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, mostly in the style of our Introduction to Monte Carlo with R book, that is, with very little theory and worked-out illustrations on simple examples. (And partly over the Atlantic on my flight to New York and Columbia.) This vignette is intended for the Wiley StatsRef: Statistics Reference Online Series, modulo possible revision. Again, nothing novel therein, except for new examples.
