Solving Bayesian inverse problems via Fisher adaptive Metropolis adjusted Langevin algorithm [PDF]
The preconditioned Metropolis adjusted Langevin algorithm (MALA) is a widely used method in statistical applications, where the choice of the preconditioning matrix plays a critical role. Recently, Titsias \cite{Titsias2024} demonstrated that the inverse Fisher information matrix is the optimal preconditioner by minimizing the expected squared jump ...

High-accuracy sampling from constrained spaces with the Metropolis-adjusted Preconditioned Langevin Algorithm [PDF]
In this work, we propose a first-order sampling method called the Metropolis-adjusted Preconditioned Langevin Algorithm for approximate sampling from a target distribution whose support is a proper convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. Our proposed method is the result of applying a Metropolis-Hastings filter to the Markov chain formed by a single step of

Exact algorithms for simulation of diffusions with discontinuous drift and robust Curvature Metropolis-adjusted Langevin algorithms [PDF]
In our work we propose new Exact Algorithms for simulation of diffusions with discontinuous drift and new methodology for simulating Brownian motion jointly with its local time. In the second part of the thesis we introduce Metropolis-adjusted Langevin algorithm which uses local geometry and we prove geometric ergodicity in case of benchmark ...

Locally Scaled and Stochastic Volatility Metropolis– Hastings Algorithms
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques are usually used to infer model parameters when closed-form inference is not feasible, with one of the simplest MCMC methods being the random walk Metropolis–Hastings (MH) algorithm.

Bayesian inference based on algorithms: MH, HMC, MALA and Lip-MALA for prestack seismic inversion [PDF]
Seismic inversion for estimating elastic properties is a key technique for reservoir characterization after drilling. The choice of inversion method strongly influences the accuracy, efficiency, and reliability of results.

Non-reversible Metropolis-Hastings [PDF]
The classical Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm can be extended to generate non-reversible Markov chains. This is achieved by means of a modification of the acceptance probability, using the notion of vorticity matrix.

MCMC inference for Markov Jump Processes via the Linear Noise Approximation [PDF]
Bayesian analysis for Markov jump processes is a non-trivial and challenging problem. Although exact inference is theoretically possible, it is computationally demanding thus its applicability is limited to a small class of problems.
