... (i) Start with the initial values α(0) , β (0) , δ (0) , γ (0) ; (ii) Simulate a sample y = (y1 , . . . , yn )0 from the conditional distributions π(yi |α(0) , β (0) , δ (0) , γ (0) , x), for i = 1, . . . , n; that is, we simulate these latent random variables y similarly to how we simulate the para ...

... each computed a 99% confidence interval for µ, approximately 99% of these intervals would contain µ. (B) there is a 99% probability that µ is between 4 and 8. (C) there is a 99% probability that the true mean is 6, and there is a 99% chance that the true margin of error is 2. (D) all of the above. 2 ...

Often the posterior mean has lower MSE than the MLE for portions of the parameter space, so its a worthwhile estimator to consider and compare to ...
