Mathematical modeling of plant growth has gained increasing interest in recent years due to its potential applications. A general family of models, known as functional–structural plant models (FSPMs) and formalized as dynamic systems, serves as the basis for the current study. Modeling,...

This paper is concerned with statistical inference in multinomial probit, multinomial-$t$ and multinomial logit models. New Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms for fitting these models are introduced and compared with existing MCMC methods. The question of parameter identification in the...
