A modified conditional Metropolis–Hastings sampler
A modified conditional Metropolis–Hastings sampler for general state spaces is introduced. Under specified conditions, this modification can lead to substantial gains in statistical efficiency while maintaining the overall quality of convergence. Results are illustrated in two settings: a toy bivariate Normal model and a Bayesian version of the random effects model.
