Uses a bivariate discrete probability distribution example to illustrate how Gibbs sampling works in practice. At the end of this video, I provide a formal definition of the algorithm.

This video is part of a lecture course which closely follows the material covered in the book, "A Student's Guide to Bayesian Statistics", published by Sage, which is available to order on Amazon here: amazon.co.uk/Students-Guide-Bayesian-Statistics/dp/1473916364
