Résumé	Multilevel Metropolis-Hastings applies the Metropolis-Hastings MCMC algorithm to hierarchical (multilevel) Bayesian models, sampling jointly from group-level parameters and hyperparameters by proposing candidate values and accepting or rejecting them via a ratio that respects the full joint posterior across all levels of the model.	Multilevel Gibbs sampling applies the Gibbs MCMC algorithm to hierarchical (multilevel) Bayesian models, cycling through the conditional distributions of group-level parameters and population-level hyperparameters in turn. This exploits the conditional independence structure of the hierarchy to draw exact or near-exact samples from a posterior that would otherwise be analytically intractable.
