Convergence of Limiting Cases of Continuous-Time, Discrete-Space Jump Processes to Diffusion Processes for Bayesian Inference

Blog Article

Jump-diffusion algorithms are applied to sampling from Bayesian posterior distributions.We consider a class of random sampling algorithms based on continuous-time jump processes.The semigroup theory of random processes lets us berness white sneakers show that limiting cases of certain poise pads in bulk jump processes acting on discretized spaces converge to diffusion processes as the discretization is refined.One of these processes leads to the familiar Langevin diffusion equation; another leads to an entirely new diffusion equation.
