Improved Bayesian estimation for exponential random graphs
Bayesian inferential methods have proved useful in the analysis of exponential random graph models, overcoming the intractability of the likelihood function and providing a probabilistic basis for parameter estimation and model uncertainty. This talk will present some recent Monte Carlo methods which improve the efficiency of such Bayesian methods in several directions.
