Slice sampling

Slice sampling is a type of Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for pseudo-random number sampling, i.e. for drawing random samples from a statistical distribution. The method is based on the fact that to sample a random variable one can sample uniformly from the region under the graph of its density function.
