Bayesian Conjugate Gibbs Sampler
Project description
Bayesian Conjugate Gibbs Sampler (BCGS)
Lightweight, pure-Python conjugate sampling
BCGS is an implementation of Markov chain monte carlo using conjugate Gibbs sampling for performing Bayesian inference. Compared to software like JAGS and BUGS, BCGS is extremely crude and limited. It exists mainly for pedagogical purposes. It may also be a convenient solution for simple inference problems, as it is written in pure Python, with no dependences beyond numpy and scipy, and requires no special installation.
Installation
Either pip install bcgs or just download the source bcgs/bcgs.py file from the repository.
Documentation
See the associated github.io page. The notebook from which it is generated can be found here.
