Nested sampling for physical scientists
Greg Ashton, Noam Bernstein, Johannes Buchner +20
We review Skilling's nested sampling (NS) algorithm for Bayesian inference and more broadly multi-dimensional integration. After recapitulating the principles of NS, we survey deve…
Bayesian posterior repartitioning for nested sampling
Xi Chen, Farhan Feroz, Michael Hobson
Priors in Bayesian analyses often encode informative domain knowledge that can be useful in making the inference process more efficient. Occasionally, however, priors may be unrepr…
Improving the efficiency and robustness of nested sampling using posterior repartitioning
Xi Chen, Mike Hobson, Saptarshi Das +1
In real-world Bayesian inference applications, prior assumptions regarding the parameters of interest may be unrepresentative of their actual values for a given dataset. In particu…
