Abstract : We consider the problem of estimating expectations by using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods and improving the accuracy by replacing IID uniform random points with quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) points. In this talk, we present short-period Tausworthe generators for Markov chain QMC optimized in terms of the $t$-value, which is a criterion of uniformity widely used in the study of QMC methods. In addition, we show the effectiveness in some numerical examples using Gibbs sampling.
