Regenerative block bootstrap for Markov chains

Patrice Bertail, +1 more
- 01 Aug 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a specific bootstrap method is introduced for positive recurrent Markov chains, based on the regenerative method and the Nummelin splitting technique, which mainly consists in dividing the sample path of the chain into data blocks corresponding to the successive visits to the atom and resampling the blocks until the (random) length of the reconstructed trajectory is at least n.

Nonasymptotic bounds on the estimation error of MCMC algorithms

TL;DR: This work addresses the problem of upper bounding the mean square error of MCMC estimators and establishes a general result valid for essentially all ergodic Markov chains encountered in Bayesian computation and a possibly unbounded target function f.

Edgeworth expansions of suitably normalized sample mean statistics for atomic Markov chains

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of estimating functionals of type μ(f)=∫fdμ from observations drawn from a positive recurrent atomic Markov chain was studied, and the properties of different estimators were studied.

Nonasymptotic bounds on the estimation error of MCMC algorithms

TL;DR: In this paper, a non-asymptotic analysis of MCMC estimators is presented for geometrically and polynomially ergodic Markov chains.

Probability Inequalities for sums of Bounded Random Variables

TL;DR: In this article, upper bounds for the probability that the sum S of n independent random variables exceeds its mean ES by a positive number nt are derived for certain sums of dependent random variables such as U statistics.

Markov Chains and Stochastic Stability

TL;DR: This second edition reflects the same discipline and style that marked out the original and helped it to become a classic: proofs are rigorous and concise, the range of applications is broad and knowledgeable, and key ideas are accessible to practitioners with limited mathematical background.

Sums of Independent Random Variables

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define the notion of infinitely divisible distributions as the limits of the distributions of sums of independent random variables, and show that the distribution of a sum of independent non-identically distributed random variables converges to a given infinitely-divisible distribution.
