Abstract:
|
In this talk I will present a number of statistical models where a straightforward Bayesian approach is not possible due to the intractability of the likelihood function. A number of useful MCMC strategies to sample from the posterior distributions from such models will be discussed. An application to phylogenetic inference will be presented.
