  A MCMC algorithm to fit a general exchangeable model
 
 
Title: A MCMC algorithm to fit a general exchangeable model
Author: Albert, Jim
Appeared in: Communications in statistics
Paging: Volume 25 (1996) nr. 3 pages 573-592
Year: 1996
Contents: Consider the exchangeable Bayesian hierarchical model where observations yi are independently distributed from sampling densities with unknown means, the means µi, are a random sample from a distribution g, and the parameters of g are assigned a known distribution h. A simple algorithm is presented for summarizing the posterior distribution based on Gibbs sampling and the Metropolis algorithm. The software program Matlab is used to implement the algorithm and provide a graphical output analysis. An binomial example is used to illustrate the flexibility of modeling possible using this algorithm. Methods of model checking and extensions to hierarchical regression modeling are discussed.
