Handbook of Markov Chain Monte Carlo Chapman & Hall/CRC Handbooks of Modern Statistical Methods Series Editor Garrett Fitzmaurice Department o f Biostatistics Harvard School o f Public Health Boston, MA, U.S.A Aims and Scope T h e objective o f the series is to provide high-quality volum es covering the state-of-the-art in the theory and applications o f statistical methodology The hooks in the series are thoroughly edited and present com prehensive, coherent, and unified sum m aries o f specific m ethodological topics from statistics The chapters are written by the leading researchers in the field, and present a good balance o f theory and application through a synthesis o f the key m ethodological developm ents and exam ples and case studies using real data T h e scope o f the series is wide, covering topics o f statistical m ethodology that are w ell developed and find application in a range o f scientific disciplines T h e volumes are prim arily o f interest to researchers and graduate students from statistics and biostatistics, but also appeal to scientists from fields where the m ethodology is applied to real problem s, including m edical research, epidem iology and public health, engineering, biological science, environm ental science, and the social sciences Published Titles Longitudinal D ata Analysis Edited by Garrett Fitzmaurice, Marie Davidian, Geert Verheke, and Geert Molenherghs Handbook of Spatial Statistics Edited by Alan E, Gelfand, Peter J Diggle, Montserrat Fuentes, and Peter Guttorp Handbook of M arkov Chain Monte C arlo Edited by Steve Brooks, Andrew Gelman, Galin L Jones, andXiao-Li Meng C h a p m a n & Ha l l / CRC Handbooks of Modern Statistical Methods Handbook of Markov Chain Monte Carlo E dited by Steve Brooks Andrew Gelman Galin L Jones Xiao-Li Meng CRC Press Taylor S Francis Group Boca Ralon London New York C R C Press is an im p rin l of the Taylor & Francis C ro u p , an in form a business A CHAPM AN & HALL BO OK M A T L A B ” is a tradem ark o f T h e M athW orks, Inc and is used with perm ission, T h e M athW orks does n o t w arran t th e accu racy o f th e te x t o r ex e rcises in th is book T h is book's use or d iscussion o f M A T L A B 7, softw are o r related prod ucts does n o t c o n stitu te en dorsem en t o r spon sorsh ip by T h e M ath W ork s o f a p articu lar pedagogical approach o r p articu lar use o f th e M A T L A IT softw are C hapm an & Hall/CRC Taylor & Francis G roup 0 Broken Sound Parkway NW , Suite 0 B o ca R aton, FL 3 -2 © 2011 by T aylor and F ran cis G roup, LLC C hapm an & Hall/CRC Ls a n im prin t o f Taylor & F ran cis G roup, an In fo rm a business No cla im to o rig in a l U.S G ov ern m en t works International Standard Book N um ber-13: -1 -4 0 -7 -5 (eBook -
