Gibbs sampling is a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm used for generating samples from a joint probability distribution when direct sampling is difficult. This method iteratively samples each variable from its conditional distribution given the current values of the other variables, allowing it to converge to the target distribution. Gibbs sampling is particularly useful in Bayesian inference, where it helps in estimating the posterior distribution of model parameters.
congrats on reading the definition of Gibbs Sampling. now let's actually learn it.
