  1. Column “No bootstrap” is the coverage probability of the 95 % credible intervals created by using pure Monte Carlo method. Column “Bootstrap” is the coverage probability of the 95 % credible intervals created by using the combined method of Monte Carlo sampling and bootstrap. From the experiments’ results, the coverage probability of combined method is closer to the nominal value
