Stopping-Time Resampling for Sequential Monte Carlo Methods
序贯蒙特卡洛方法的停时重采样
Summary Motivated by the statistical inference problem in population genetics, we present a new sequential importance sampling with resampling strategy. The idea of resampling is key to the recent surge of popularity of sequential Monte Carlo methods in the statistics and engin-eering communities, but existing resampling techniques do not work well for coalescent-based inference problems in population genetics. We develop a new method called ‘stopping-time resampling’, which…
