dc.description.abstract | A Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm is proposed for the evaluation of a posterior
distribution. The posterior distribution is from a model that has a spatial structure
and exhibits many characterisics which are typically cumbersome to MCMC algorithms.
The algorithm is construct with the purpose of conquering or significantly reducing these
difficulties. The performance of this algorithm is then investigated for a diversity of circumstances. | |
