A non-iterative (trivial) method for posterior inference in stochastic volatility models

Abstract

We propose a new non-iterative, very simple but accurate, Bayesian inference procedure for the stochastic volatility model. The only requirement of our approach is to solve a large, sparse linear system which we avoid by iteration.
