Hamiltonian Monte Carlo with Measurement Error
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) with measurement error is a Bayesian computational strategy for fitting models where one or more covariates are observed with noise. HMC samples jointly from the posterior over model parameters and the unobserved true covariate values, using gradient-based proposals that explore the high-dimensional posterior efficiently and avoid the slow random-walk behaviour of standard Metropolis sampling.
