A short history of Markov chain Monte Carlo: Subjective recollections from incomplete data

C Robert, G Casella - 2011 - projecteuclid.org
We attempt to trace the history and development of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) from
its early inception in the late 1940s through its use today. We see how the earlier stages of …
