Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new method for perfect simulation of multivariate densities. We use One-Shot CFTP (G. Roberts and J. Rosenthal, “One-shot coupling for certain stochastic recursive sequences,” Stochastic Processes and their Applications vol. 99 pp. 195–208, 2002) together with a monotone coupler for the Gibbs sampler, and implement the algorithm within the Read-Once CFTP protocol (D. B. Wilson, “How to couple form the past using a read-once source of randomness,” Random Structures and Algorithms vol. 16(1) pp. 85–113, 2000b). We illustrate our method by simulating efficiently from high-dimensional truncated normal distributions using the Gibbs sampler.
