Accept Reject

1. Sample U from unif(0,1) and V from pdf of v.


2. Accept if U <1/M f_Y(v)/f_V(v) where M is finite upper bound on ratio between pdf of y and pdf of v

V must have same support as target Y and fatter tails

Inverse CDF

Solve for the inverse CDF of variable of interest Y. Draw from uniform and plug into the inverse CDF.

Metropolis-Hastings

Define proposal dist V. Initialize draw Z.0 from pdf of V.


1. Draw U from unif(0,1) and V.i from the pdf of V.


2. Calculate acceptance ratio (ratio of pdf of Y over pdf of V at V.i divided by ratio at Z.0)


3. Accept V.i if U is less than acceptance ratio.

Use if ratio between target and proposal PDFs is not finite

Importance Sampling

-Draw theta~g(theta) and calculate weight p(theta)/g(theta)


-Weight each quantity of interest h(theta) with its weight and average


-Can renormalize importance weights if target p(theta) known up only to norm constant
