This paper demonstrates the use of the Gibbs Sampler and other Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods in two applications in environmental epidemiology. The first example concerns the application of a Metropolis-Hastings/Gibbs sampler to a Cox process with a direction-dependent cluster variance parameter. The second example consists of the estimation of the posterior (spatial) distribution of a putative location.
本文展示了吉布斯采样器和其他马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗(MCMC)方法在环境流行病学两个应用中的使用。第一个例子涉及将 metropolis - hastings/吉布斯采样器应用于具有方向相关聚类方差参数的考克斯过程。第二个例子包括对假定位置的后验(空间)分布的估计。
