Inverse Transformed Density Rejection for Unbounded Monotone Densities

A new algorithm for sampling from largely abitrary monotone, unbounded densities is presented. The user has to provide a program to evaluate the density and its derivative and the location of the pole. Then the setup of the new algorithm constructs different hat functions for the pole region and for...
