In practice, most computers generate simulation outputs sequentially, so it is attractive to analyze these outputs through sequential statistical methods such as sequential probability ratio tests (SPRTs). We investigate several SPRTs for choosing between two hypothesized values for the mean...

This represents the original developments of Sequential Monte Carlo Samplers in the class of solutions that generalise SMC filtering methods to the case of a fixed state-space. This makes such methods exact and applicable for Bayesian inference in context otherwise typically treated by Markov...
