AIS
- 1.start with a trial density, say
- 2.with weighted Monte Carlo samples, estimate the parameters, mean and covariate matrix, and construct new trial density, say
- 3.construct a certain measure of discrepancy between the trial distribution and the target distribution, such as the coefficient of variation of importance weights, does not improve any more.
Implement an Adaptive Importance Sampling algorithm to evaluate mean and variance of a density
where
.
A possible procedure is as follows:
- 1.start with a trial density
- 2.Recursively, buildin which one choosesto minimize the variation of coefficient of the importance weights.
