A class of adaptive sampling methods is introduced for efficient posterior and predictive simulation. The proposed … between target and mixture is minimized. We label this approach Mixture of t by Importance Sampling and Expectation …, we introduce a permutation-augmented MitISEM approach, for importance sampling from posterior distributions in mixture …
