Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference using a Combinatorial Sequential Monte Carlo Method
The application of Bayesian methods to large scale phylogenetics problems is increasingly limited by computational issues, motivating the development of methods that can complement existing Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) schemes. Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are approximate inference algorithms that have become very popular for time series models. Such methods have been recently develo...
متن کاملMagnetic Hamiltonian Monte Carlo
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) exploits Hamiltonian dynamics to construct efficient proposals for Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). In this paper, we present a generalization of HMC which exploits non-canonical Hamiltonian dynamics. We refer to this algorithm as magnetic HMC, since in 3 dimensions a subset of the dynamics map onto the mechanics of a charged particle coupled to a magnetic field. W...
متن کاملWormhole Hamiltonian Monte Carlo
In machine learning and statistics, probabilistic inference involving multimodal distributions is quite difficult. This is especially true in high dimensional problems, where most existing algorithms cannot easily move from one mode to another. To address this issue, we propose a novel Bayesian inference approach based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo. Our method can effectively sample from multimod...
متن کاملSplit Hamiltonian Monte Carlo
We show how the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo algorithm can sometimes be speeded up by “splitting” the Hamiltonian in a way that allows much of the movement around the state space to be done at low computational cost. One context where this is possible is when the log density of the distribution of interest (the potential energy function) can be written as the log of a Gaussian density, which is a qu...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Hamiltonian
We construct an effective Hamiltonian via Monte Carlo from a given action. This Hamiltonian describes physics in the low energy regime. We test it by computing spectrum, wave functions and thermodynamical observables (average energy and specific heat) for the free system and the harmonic oscillator. The method is shown to work also for other local potentials. PACS index: o3.65.-w, 05.10.Ln ∗Cor...
