An Efficient Estimation for Switching Regression Models: A Monte Carlo Study
This paper investigates an efficient estimation method for a class of switching regressions based on the characteristic function (CF). We show that with the exponential weighting ...

On Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian multivariate regression models with heavy-tailed errors
We consider Bayesian analysis of data from multivariate linear regression models whose errors have a distribution that is a scale mixture of normals. Such models are used to analy...

Monte Carlo Greeks for Financial Products via Approximative Transition Densities
In this paper we introduce efficient Monte Carlo estimators for the valuation of high-dimensional derivatives and their sensitivities ("Greeks"). These estimators are ba...

The Minimum Density Power Divergence Approach in Building Robust Regression Models
It is well known that in situations involving the study of large datasets where influential observations or outliers maybe present, regression models based on the Maximum Likeliho...

Efficient Sampling for Gaussian Process Inference using Control Variables
Sampling functions in Gaussian process (GP) models is challenging because of the highly correlated posterior distribution. We describe an efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo algori...
