Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

by Kenneth E. Train , 2002
"... This book describes the new generation of discrete choice meth-ods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logi ..."

moments, and the method of simulated scores. Procedures for drawing from densities are described, including variance reduction techniques such as antithetics and Halton draws. Recent advances in Bayesian procedures are explored, including the use of the Metropolis– Hastings algorithm and its variant Gibbs

Incorporating non-local information into information extraction systems by Gibbs sampling

by Jenny Rose Finkel, Trond Grenager, Christopher Manning - IN ACL , 2005
"... Most current statistical natural language processing models use only local features so as to permit dynamic programming in inference, but this makes them unable to fully account for the long distance structure that is prevalent in language use. We show how to solve this dilemma with Gibbs sampling, ..."

Efficient Variants of the ICP Algorithm

by Szymon Rusinkiewicz, Marc Levoy - INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON 3-D DIGITAL IMAGING AND MODELING , 2001
"... The ICP (Iterative Closest Point) algorithm is widely used for geometric alignment of three-dimensional models when an initial estimate of the relative pose is known. Many variants of ICP have been proposed, affecting all phases of the algorithm from the selection and matching of points to the minim ..."

sampling of the space of normals. We conclude by proposing a combination of ICP variants optimized for high speed. We demonstrate an implementation that is able to align two range images in a few tens of milliseconds, assuming a good initial guess. This capability has potential application to real-time 3D

Evaluating the Accuracy of Sampling-Based Approaches to the Calculation of Posterior Moments

by John Geweke - IN BAYESIAN STATISTICS , 1992
"... Data augmentation and Gibbs sampling are two closely related, sampling-based approaches to the calculation of posterior moments. The fact that each produces a sample whose constituents are neither independent nor identically distributed complicates the assessment of convergence and numerical accurac ..."

Exact Sampling with Coupled Markov Chains and Applications to Statistical Mechanics

by James Gary Propp, David Bruce Wilson , 1996
"... For many applications it is useful to sample from a finite set of objects in accordance with some particular distribution. One approach is to run an ergodic (i.e., irreducible aperiodic) Markov chain whose stationary distribution is the desired distribution on this set; after the Markov chain has ..."

Gibbs Sampling Methods for Stick-Breaking Priors

by Hemant Ishwaran, Lancelot F. James
"... ... In this paper we present two general types of Gibbs samplers that can be used to fit posteriors of Bayesian hierarchical models based on stick-breaking priors. The first type of Gibbs sampler, referred to as a Polya urn Gibbs sampler, is a generalized version of a widely used Gibbs sampling meth ..."

Sequential Monte Carlo Methods for Dynamic Systems

by Jun S. Liu, Rong Chen - Journal of the American Statistical Association , 1998
"... A general framework for using Monte Carlo methods in dynamic systems is provided and its wide applications indicated. Under this framework, several currently available techniques are studied and generalized to accommodate more complex features. All of these methods are partial combinations of three ..."

Probabilistic Inference Using Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods

by Radford M. Neal , 1993
"... Probabilistic inference is an attractive approach to uncertain reasoning and empirical learning in artificial intelligence. Computational difficulties arise, however, because probabilistic models with the necessary realism and flexibility lead to complex distributions over high-dimensional spaces. R ..."
Abstract - Cited by 736 (24 self) - Add to MetaCart
physics for over forty years, and, in the last few years, the related method of "Gibbs sampling" has been applied to problems of statistical inference. Concurrently, an alternative method for solving problems in statistical physics by means of dynamical simulation has been developed as well

A tutorial on particle filters for online nonlinear/non-Gaussian Bayesian tracking

by M. Sanjeev Arulampalam, Simon Maskell, Neil Gordon - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SIGNAL PROCESSING , 2002
"... Increasingly, for many application areas, it is becoming important to include elements of nonlinearity and non-Gaussianity in order to model accurately the underlying dynamics of a physical system. Moreover, it is typically crucial to process data on-line as it arrives, both from the point of view o ..."

FAST VOLUME RENDERING USING A SHEAR-WARP FACTORIZATION OF THE VIEWING TRANSFORMATION

by Philippe G. Lacroute , 1995
"... Volume rendering is a technique for visualizing 3D arrays of sampled data. It has applications in areas such as medical imaging and scientific visualization, but its use has been limited by its high computational expense. Early implementations of volume rendering used brute-force techniques that req ..."
