Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm comparisons

Various Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms are available for sampling from a posterior distribution. The random walk Metropolis algorithm is a simple scheme which is frequently used in Bayesian statistical problem. The guided walk algorithm attempts to suppress the random walk behavior in the r...
