Abstract
In this paper we use Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques to carry out Bayesian inference for piecewise stochastic logistic growth models using discretely observed data sets, which allows us to fit models for time series data, including data on fish productions and yields, with structural changes. The estimation framework involves the introduction of latent data points between each pair of observations, and the use of MCMC techniques, based on the Gibbs sampling algorithm, in conjunction with the Euler-Maruyama discretization. scheme. These methods are used to sample from the posterior distribution using exact bridges, allowing estimation of the model parameters including switching point(s). We apply our methods to examples involving both simulated data and real data for fisheries resources management. (C) 2008 Elsevier BY. All rights reserved.
