Bayesian optimization for adaptive MCMC
A new randomized strategy for adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) using Bayesian optimization, called Bayesian-optimized MCMC, is proposed. This approach can handle non-differentiable objective functions and trades off exploration and exploitation to reduce the number of function evaluations. B...
