Robust adaptive Metropolis algorithm with coerced acceptance rate
The adaptive Metropolis (AM) algorithm of Haario, Saksman and Tamminen [Bernoulli 7 (2001) 223-242] uses the estimated covariance of the target distribution in the proposal distribution. This paper introduces a new robust adaptive Metropolis algorithm estimating the shape of the target distribution and simultaneously coercing the acceptance rate. The adaptation rule is computationally simple ad...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Metropolis algorithm
A proper choice of a proposal distribution for MCMC methods, e.g. for the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, is well known to be a crucial factor for the convergence of the algorithm. In this paper we introduce an adaptive Metropolis Algorithm (AM), where the Gaussian proposal distribution is updated along the process using the full information cumulated so far. Due to the adaptive nature of the pr...

A proper choice of a proposal distribution for Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, for example for the Metropolis±Hastings algorithm, is well known to be a crucial factor for the convergence of the algorithm.

متن کاملExploring an Adaptive Metropolis Algorithm
While adaptive methods for MCMC are under active development, their utility has been under-recognized. We briefly review some theoretical results relevant to adaptive MCMC. We then suggest a very simple and effective algorithm to adapt proposal densities for random walk Metropolis and Metropolis adjusted Langevin algorithms. The benefits of this algorithm are immediate, and we demonstrate its p...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Directional Metropolis-within-Gibbs algorithm
In this paper we propose a simple adaptive Metropolis-within-Gibbs algorithm attempting to study directions on which the Metropolis algorithm can be ran flexibly. The algorithm avoids the wasting moves in wrong directions by proposals from the full dimensional adaptive Metropolis algorithm. We also prove its ergodicity, and test it on a Gaussian Needle example and a real-life Case-Cohort study ...
