Numerical Analysis II
The Metropolis-Hastings algorithm is a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method used to sample from a probability distribution when direct sampling is difficult. It generates samples by constructing a Markov chain that has the desired distribution as its equilibrium distribution, allowing for efficient exploration of complex distributions in various applications, including integration and optimization.
congrats on reading the definition of Metropolis-Hastings Algorithm. now let's actually learn it.
