Markov Chains for Exploring Posterior Distributions

Luke Tierney
- 01 Dec 1994 - 
TL;DR: Several Markov chain methods are available for sampling from a posterior distribution as discussed by the authors, including Gibbs sampler and Metropolis algorithm, and several strategies for constructing hybrid algorithms, which can be used to guide the construction of more efficient algorithms.

Bayesian analysis of binary and polychotomous response data

TL;DR: In this paper, exact Bayesian methods for modeling categorical response data are developed using the idea of data augmentation, which can be summarized as follows: the probit regression model for binary outcomes is seen to have an underlying normal regression structure on latent continuous data, and values of the latent data can be simulated from suitable truncated normal distributions.

Benchmarks for basic scheduling problems

TL;DR: This paper proposes 260 randomly generated scheduling problems whose size is greater than that of the rare examples published, and the objective is the minimization of the makespan.
