  • Let the given distribution $\pi$ have a log-concave density which is proportional to exp(-V(x)) on $R^d$. We consider a Markov chain induced by the method Gibbs sampling having $\pi$ as its in-variant distribution and prove geometric ergodicity and the functional central limit theorem for the process.

  • In this paper, a new form of generalized linear models is proposed. The proposed models consist of a distribution function of the mean response and a weighted linear combination of distribution functions of covariates. This form addresses a structural problem of the link function in the generalized linear models. Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are used to estimate the parameters within a Bayesian framework.

  • We consider a doubly stochastically perturbed dynamical system {$X_n$} generated by $X_n\Gamma_n(X_{n-1})+W_n where \Gamma_n$ is a Markov chain of random functions and $W_n$ is i.i.d. random elements. Sufficient conditions for stationarity and geometric ergodicity of $X_n$ are obtained by considering asymptotic behaviours of the associated Markov chain. Ergodic theorem and functional central limit theorem are proved.

  • A Markov Chain Monte Carlo method with development of computation is used to be the software system reliability probability model. For Bayesian estimator considering computational problem and theoretical justification we studies relation Markov Chain with Gibbs sampling. Special case of GOS with Superposition for Goel-Okumoto and Weibull models using Gibbs sampling and Metropolis algorithm considered. In this paper discuss Bayesian computation and model selection using posterior predictive likelihood criterion. We consider in this paper data using method by Cox-Lewis. A numerical example with a simulated data set is given.

  • This paper is the generalization of the modified two-level skip-lot sampling plan(MTSkSP1) to n-level. The general formulas of the operating characteristic(OC) function, average sample number(ASN) and average outgoing quality(AOQ) for the plan are derived using Markov chain properties. The operating characteristic curves, average sample numbers and average outgoing qualities of a reference plan, modified two-level, three-level and five-level skip-lot sampling plans are compared.

  • A momentum threshold autoregressive (MTAR) model, a nonlinear autoregressive model, is analyzed in a Bayesian framework. Parameter estimation in the presence of missing data is done by using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. We also propose simple Bayesian test procedures for asymmetry and unit roots. The proposed method is applied to a set of Korea unemployment rate data and reveals evidence for asymmetry and a unit root.

  • W. Choi([1]) identified and characterized the limiting diffusion of this diploid model by defining discrete generator for the rescaled Markov chain. We denote by F the homozygosity and by S the average selection intensity. In this note, we define the Fleming-Viot process with generator of limiting diffusion and provide exact result for the relations of F and S.

  • In this note, we characterize the limiting diffusion of a diploid model by defining the discrete generator for the resealed Markov chain. We conclude that this limiting diffusion model is with uncountable state space and mutation selection and special 'mutation or gene conversion rate'.

  • The proportional hazards model (PHM) can be associated with a non- homogeneous Markov chain (NHMC) in the sense that sample alignments in the PHM correspond to trajectories of the NHMC. As a result the partial likelihood widely used for the PHM is a probabilistic function of the trajectories of the NHMC. In this paper, we show that, as the total number of subjects involved increases, the trajectories of the NHMC, i.e. sample alignments in the PHM, converges to the solution of an ordinary differential equation which, subsequently, characterizes the almost sure limit of the partial likelihood.

  • Hierarchical models are widely used for inference on correlated parameters as a compromise between underfitting and overfilling problems. In this paper, we take a Bayesian approach to analyzing hierarchical models and suggest a Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to get around computational difficulties in Bayesian analysis of the hierarchical models. We apply the method to a real data on smoking and lung cancer which are collected from cities in China.
