Speaker: Charles Margossian (CCM)
Topic: Antonietta Mira. "Ordering and Improving the Performance of Monte Carlo Markov Chains." Statist. Sci.16 (4) 340 - 350, November 2001
Abstract: An overview of orderings defined on the space of Markov chains having a prespecified unique stationary distribution is given. The intuition gained by studying these orderings is used to improve existing Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms.
