Contributed Discussion to Computationally Efficient Multivariate Spatio-Temporal Models for High-Dimensional Count-Valued Data by Bradley et al
share
I begin my discussion by summarizing the methodology proposed and new distributional results on multivariate log-Gamma derived in the paper. Then, I draw an interesting connection between their work with mean field variational Bayes. Lastly, I make some comments on the simulation results and the performance of the proposed P-MSTM procedure.
