Bootstrap Markov chain Monte Carlo and optimal solutions for the Law of Categorical Judgment (Corrected)

Kochanski, Greg P; Rosner, Burton S. - 2010

A novel procedure is described for accelerating the convergence of Markov chain Monte Carlo computations. The algorithm uses an adaptive bootstrap technique to generate candidate steps in the Markov Chain. It is efficient for symmetric, convex probability distributions, similar to multivariate...

Design of Discrete Auction

Sujarittanonta, Pacharasut - 2010

Chapter 1: Efficient Design of an Auction with Discrete Bid Levels This paper studies one of auction design issues: the choice of bid levels. Full efficiency is generally unachievable with a discrete auction. Since there may be more than one bidder who submits the same bid, the auction cannot...
