    Abstract

    The change-point problem arises in wide variety of fields, including biomedical signal processing, speech and image processing, seismology, industry (e.g., fault detection) and financial mathematics. Multiple change-point models are also important in many biological applications and,particularly, in analysis of biomolecular sequences. We model genome sequences as a multiple change-point process, that is, a process in which the sequential data are separated into segments by an unknown number of change-points, with each segment supposed to have been generated by a different process. The parameters of the model are estimated by Adaptive Independent Samplers, which are adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo methods based on the Independent Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. We discuss results of numerical experiments comparing different computing schemes.
