... The distinguishing feature of MCMC is that the random samples of the integrand in (1) are correlated, whereas in conventional Monte Carlo methods such samples are statistically independent. The goal of MCMC methods is to construct an ergodic Markov chain that converges quickly to its stationary dist ...
