Analysis of Polya-Gamma Gibbs sampler for Bayesian logistic analysis of variance

Abstract

We consider the intractable posterior density that results when the one-way logistic analysis of variance model is combined with a flat prior. We analyze Polson, Scott and Windle’s (2013) data augmentation (DA) algorithm for exploring the posterior. The Markov operator associated with the DA algorithm is shown to be trace-class.
