About: Coupling from the past

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Among Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms, coupling from the past is a method for sampling from the stationary distribution of a Markov chain. Contrary to many MCMC algorithms, coupling from the past gives in principle a perfect sample from the stationary distribution. It was invented by James Propp and in 1996.
