Abstract: A critical issue for users of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods in applications is how to
determine when it is safe to stop sampling and use the samples to estimate characteristics of the distribution
of interest. Research into methods of computing theoretical convergence bounds holds promise for
the future but currently has yielded relatively little that is of practical use in applied work. Consequently,
most MCMC users address the convergence problem by applying diagnostic tools to the... (Update)
