Investigating Multimodal Density - Sampling Method

  • Implemented the Repelling-Attracting Metropolis Algorithm for sampling from posterior distribution in searching for unknown sensor locations within a network which produces a multimodal joint posterior distribution.
  • Compared RAM with other optimization methods such as BFGS and Metropolis Hasting, in terms of speed and accuracy
  • Implemented RAM on 7D Exoplanet detection problem to sample posterior using a time-series radial velocity dataset.
