Rapidly Mixing Markov Chains for Sampling Contingency Tables with a Constant Number of Rows
We consider the problem of sampling almost uniformly from the set of contingency tables with given row and column sums, when the number of rows is a constant. Cryan and Dyer [3] h...

Fast perfect sampling from linear extensions
In this paper, we study the problem of sampling (exactly) uniformly from the set of linear extensions of an arbitrary partial order. Previous Markov chain techniques have yielded ...

A new Particle Filtering algorithm with structurally optimal importance function
Bayesian estimation in nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems has been addressed for a long time. Among other solutions, Particle Filtering (PF) algorithms propagate in time a Mon...
