Improvements to the conventional ratio-of-uniforms method for random variate generation are proposed. A generalized radio-of-uniforms method is introduced, and it is demonstrated that relocation of the required density via the mode can greatly improve the computational efficiency of the method. We describe a multivariate version of the basic method and summarize a general strategy for efficient ratio-of-uniforms generation. Illustrative examples are given. 相似文献

Stochastic simulation is widely used to validate procedures and provide guidance for both theoretical and practical problems.
Random variate generation is the basis of stochastic simulation. Applying the ratio-of-uniforms method to generate random
vectors requires the ability to generate points uniformly in a suitable region of the space. Starting from the observation
that, for many multivariate distributions, the multidimensional objective region can be covered by a hyper-ellipsoid more
tightly than by a hyper-rectangle, a new algorithm to generate from multivariate distributions is proposed. Due to the computational
saving it can produce, this method becomes an appealing statistical tool to generate random vectors from families of standard
and nonstandard multivariate distributions. It is particularly interesting to generate from densities known up to a multiplicative
constant, for example, from those arising in Bayesian computation. The proposed method is applied and its efficiency is shown
for some classes of distributions. 相似文献

This article deals with some important computational aspects of the generalized von Mises distribution in relation with parameter
estimation, model selection and simulation. The generalized von Mises distribution provides a flexible model for circular
data allowing for symmetry, asymmetry, unimodality and bimodality. For this model, we show the equivalence between the trigonometric
method of moments and the maximum likelihood estimators, we give their asymptotic distribution, we provide bias-corrected
estimators of the entropy, the Akaike information criterion and the measured entropy for model selection, and we implement
the ratio-of-uniforms method of simulation. 相似文献
