Detailed Description

View in nbviewer Open in SWAN Comparison of MCMC and PLC in a multi-variate gaussian problem

This tutorial produces an N-dimensional multivariate Gaussian with a non-trivial covariance matrix. By default N=4 (called "dim").

A subset of these are considered parameters of interest. This problem is tractable analytically.

We use this mainly as a test of Markov Chain Monte Carlo and we compare the result to the profile likelihood ratio.

We use the proposal helper to create a customized proposal function for this problem.

For N=4 and 2 parameters of interest it takes about 10-20 seconds and the acceptance rate is 37%
