Hamiltonian Monte Carlo: How Momentum Turns Random Walks into Efficient Sampling
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo: How Momentum Turns Random Walks into Efficient Sampling Most Bayesian models are easy to write down and hard to sample from. You can usually evaluate an unnormalised posterior density, or its gradient, but you cannot draw independent samples from it directly. Markov chain M…
