DOI: 10.1080/01621459.2021.1881523
Abstract: Abstract We present a Gibbs sampler for the Dempster–Shafer (DS) approach to statistical inference for categorical distributions. The DS framework extends the Bayesian approach, allows in particular the use of partial prior information, and yields… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12936-021-03841-9
Abstract: Background Malaria patients can have two or more haplotypes in their blood sample making it challenging to identify which haplotypes they carry. In addition, there are challenges in measuring the type and frequency of resistant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1214/20-sts788
Abstract: Gibbs sampling is a widely popular Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm that can be used to analyze intractable posterior distributions associated with Bayesian hierarchical models. There are two standard versions of the Gibbs sampler: The… read more here.

DOI: 10.3150/15-bej758
Abstract: We establish results for the rate of convergence in total variation of a particular Gibbs sampler to its equilibrium distribution. This sampler is for a Bayesian inference model for a gamma random variable, whose only… read more here.
