תקציר	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.	The Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm is a general-purpose Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for drawing samples from any probability distribution whose density can be evaluated up to a normalising constant. Introduced by Metropolis, Rosenbluth, Rosenbluth, Teller, and Teller (1953) in computational physics and generalised by Hastings (1970) to asymmetric proposal distributions, it is the foundational algorithm from which nearly all subsequent MCMC samplers — Gibbs sampling, Hamiltonian Monte Carlo, slice sampling — are derived or can be viewed as special cases.
