The Metropolis Adjusted Langevin Algorithm (MALA) samples from complex multivariate densities . The proposal density is based on a discretized version of a Langevin di usion, and is well deÿned only for continuously di erentiable densities . We propose a modiÿed MALA algorithm when this condition is
In this note, we discuss the possible existence and effect of different reference measures on the Hastings-Metropolis (H-M) algorithm. We prove that the standard H-M algorithm as a Markov chain does not depend on the choice of the reference measure, and we obtain a sufficient and necessary condition
