Torpid mixing of simulated tempering on the Potts model
Simulated tempering and swapping are two families of sampling algorithms in which a parameter representing temperature varies during the simulation. The hope is that this will ove...

The Swendsen-Wang Process Does Not Always Mix Rapidly
The Swendsen-Wang process provides one possible dynamics for the Qstate Potts model in statistical physics. Computer simulations of this process are widely used to estimate the ex...

Hierarchical markovian models for joint classification, segmentation and data reduction of hyperspectral images
Spectral classification, segmentation and data reduction are the three main problems in hyperspectral image analysis. In this paper we propose a Bayesian estimation approach which ...
