Dear list users,
I need to learn about MCMC methods, and since there are several packages in
R that deal with this subject, I want to use them.
I want to buy a book (or more than one, if necessary) that satisfies the
following requirements:
- it teaches well MCMC methods;
- it is easy to implement numerically the ideas of the book, and notation
and concepts are similar to the corresponding R packages that deal with MCMC
methods.
I have done a search and 2 books seem to satisfy my requirements:
- Markov Chain Monte Carlo In Practice, by W.R. Gilks and others.
- Monte Carlo Statistical methods, Robert and Casella.
What do people think about these books? Is there a suggestion of some other
book that could satisfy better my requirements?
Thank you very much in advance.
