Applications of Conjugate Gradient in Bayesian computation

Methodology 2023-08-30 v1

Abstract

Conjugate gradient is an efficient algorithm for solving large sparse linear systems. It has been utilized to accelerate the computation in Bayesian analysis for many large-scale problems. This article discusses the applications of conjugate gradient in Bayesian computation, with a focus on sparse regression and spatial analysis. A self-contained introduction of conjugate gradient is provided to facilitate potential applications in a broader range of problems.
