Computing the Bayesian Factor from a Markov chain Monte Carlo Simulation of the Posterior Distribution
Martin D. Weinberg
Computation of the marginal likelihood from a simulated posterior distribution is central to Bayesian model selection but is computationally difficult. I argue that the marginal li…

Beyond the best-fit parameter: new insight on galaxy structure decomposition from GALPHAT
Ilsang Yoon, Martin Weinberg, Neal Katz
We introduce a novel image decomposition package, GALPHAT, that provides robust estimates of galaxy surface brightness profiles using Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo. The GALPHAT…

Structural Properties of Central Galaxies in Groups and Clusters
Yicheng Guo, Daniel H. McIntosh, H. J. Mo +6
Using a representative sample of 911 central galaxies (CENs) from the SDSS DR4 group catalogue, we study how the structure of the most massive members in groups and clusters depend…
