Geodesic slice sampling on Riemannian manifolds
Alain Durmus, Samuel Gruffaz, Mareike Hasenpflug +1
We propose a theoretically justified and practically applicable slice sampling based Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for approximate sampling from probability measures on Ri…

On the convergence of dynamic implementations of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo and No U-Turn Samplers
Alain Durmus, Samuel Gruffaz, Miika Kailas +2
There is substantial empirical evidence about the success of dynamic implementations of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC), such as the No U-Turn Sampler (NUTS), in many challenging inf…
