Anytime parallel tempering [PDF]
Statistics and Computing, 2021 AbstractDeveloping efficient MCMC algorithms is indispensable in Bayesian inference. In parallel tempering, multiple interacting MCMC chains run to more efficiently explore the state space and improve performance. The multiple chains advance independently through local moves, and the performance enhancement steps are exchange moves, where the chains ...

Accelerating parallel tempering: Quantile tempering algorithm (QuanTA) [PDF]
Advances in Applied Probability, 2019 AbstractIt is well known that traditional Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods can fail to effectively explore the state space for multimodal problems. Parallel tempering is a well-established population approach for such target distributions involving a collection of particles indexed by temperature.

CoRR, 2014 Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) are one of the fundamental building blocks of deep learning. Approximate maximum likelihood training of RBMs typically necessitates sampling from these models. In many training scenarios, computationally efficient Gibbs sampling procedures are crippled by poor mixing.

Genre & Histoire, 2017 After the ‘Commune’ and the Franco-Prussian War, the anti-alcohol movement established itself in France as a scientific, elitist and masculine movement. Previous research has shown that women were confined to traditional roles by practices and discourses
