Iterative Construction of Gaussian Process Surrogate Models for Bayesian Inference

no code implementations17 Nov 2019 Leen Alawieh, Jonathan Goodman, John B. Bell

The algorithm aims to mitigate some of the hurdles faced by traditional Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) samplers, through constructing proposal probability densities that are both, easy to sample and that provide a better approximation to the target density than a simple Gaussian proposal distribution would.

emcee: The MCMC Hammer

22 code implementations16 Feb 2012 Daniel Foreman-Mackey, David W. Hogg, Dustin Lang, Jonathan Goodman

The algorithm behind emcee has several advantages over traditional MCMC sampling methods and it has excellent performance as measured by the autocorrelation time (or function calls per independent sample).
