Metropolis-Hastings with Missing Data/Evidence
Method evidence record

Metropolis-Hastings with Missing Data

Metropolis-Hastings with missing data treats unobserved values as latent variables and samples them jointly with model parameters inside a single MCMC chain. By augmenting the target distribution to include both parameters and missing values, the algorithm yields properly calibrated posterior inference without discarding incomplete cases or requiring a separate imputation step.
