Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for producing statistically correct and efficient combinations of multiple simulated posterior samples from MCMC and related Bayesian sampling schemes are described. One or more chains from a Bayesian posterior distribution of values may be generated. It may be determine whether the one or more chains have reached stationarity through parallel processing on a plurality of processing nodes. Based upon the determination, each of the one or more chains that have reached stationarity through parallel processing on the plurality of processing nodes may be sorted. The one or more sorted chains may be resampled through parallel processing on the plurality of processing nodes. The one or more resampled chains may be combined. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Techniques for automated Bayesian posterior sampling using Markov Chain Monte Carlo and related schemes are described. In an embodiment, one or more values in a stationarity phase for a system configured for Bayesian sampling may be initialized. Sampling may be performed in the stationarity phase based upon the one or more values to generate a plurality of samples. The plurality of samples may be evaluated based upon one or more stationarity criteria. The stationarity phase may be exited when the plurality of samples meets the one or more stationarity criteria. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to techniques for deriving a sample representation from a random sample. A computer-program product includes instructions to cause a first computing device to fit an empirical distribution function to a marginal probability distribution of a variable within a first sample portion of a random sample to derive a partial marginal probability distribution approximation, wherein the random sample is divided into multiple sample portions distributed among multiple computing devices; fit a first portion of a copula function to a multivariate probability distribution of the first sample portion, wherein the copula function is divided into multiple portions; and transmit an indication of a first likelihood contribution of the first sample portion to a coordinating device to cause a second computing device to fit a second portion of the copula function to a multivariate probability distribution of a second sample portion. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
