We also discuss collapsed Gibbs sampling, Pólya urn Gibbs sampling and a Pólya urn SIS scheme. Our framework allows for numerous applications, including multiplicative counting process models subject ...

Similarly, the novel Weighted Jump Random Walk approach has addressed the common challenge of repeated sampling—enhancing both accuracy and computational efficiency [2].

Several weighting methods have been proposed in the literature for estimating the parameters of hierarchical models, of which random effects models are a special case. We evaluate the bias of the ...
