Abstract
This paper primarily is concerned with the sampling of the Fisher---Bingham distribution and we describe a slice sampling algorithm for doing this. A by-product of this task gave us an infinite mixture representation of the Fisher---Bingham distribution; the mixing distributions being based on the Dirichlet distribution. Finite numerical approximations are considered and a sampling algorithm based on a finite mixture approximation is compared with the slice sampling algorithm.
