Title: Discussion on Computationally Efficient Multivariate Spatio-Temporal Models for High-Dimensional Count-Valued Data by Bradley et al,
Abstract: 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 Poisson multivariate spatio-temporal mixed effects
model (P-MSTM).
