BASS: Bayesian Analyzer of Event Sequences

We describe the BASS system, a Bayesian analyzer of event sequences. BASS uses Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, especially Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, for exploring posterior distributions. The system allows the user to specify an intensity model in a high-level definition language, and then runs the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm on it.
