jwmi.github.ioimportance sampling. Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a sampling technique that works remarkably well in many situations like this. Roughly speaking, my intuition for why MCMC often works well in practice is that (a)the region of high probability tends to be \connected", that is, you can get from one

www.cs.toronto.eduGibbs sampling, a Markov chain Monte Carlo method which was invented independently (Geman and Geman, 1984) and was also inspired by simulated annealing. Conditional random elds (Della Pietra et al., 1997) can be viewed as simpli ed versions of higher-order, conditional Boltzmann machines in which the hidden units have been eliminated.
