Discretising a Continuous World: Accelerated Inference for State-Space Models via Hidden Markov Models

This seminar is part of our Centre’s EC Bayes Seminar Series

Speaker: Mary Llewellyn, University of Edinburgh

Abstract:  Inference on the process parameters of a state-space model (SSM) can be especially challenging when the likelihood of the data given the parameters is not available in closed form. A variety of approaches to Bayesian model fitting have been applied in such situations, including MCMC with data augmentation, sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) approximation, and particle MCMC algorithms.
