Adaptive Markov Chain Monte Carlo for Auxiliary Variable Method and Its Application to Exchange Monte Carlo Method

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) For sampling from a complicated distribution, Auxiliary Variable Method, which contain Exchange Monte Carlo Method and Cluster Monte Carlo Method, etc, is quite efficient. Auxiliary Variable Method is highly dependent on the properties of auxiliary distributions. Therefore we have to configure the appropriate parameters of auxiliary distributions. In this paper, we propose the adaptive algorithm that learn good parameters of proposal and auxiliary distributions while they generate samples from the target distribution and prove convergence of the adaptive algorithm. Particularly we extend Exchange Monte Carlo Method to the adaptive algorithm that simultaneously learn parameters of proposal distributions and inverse temperature parameters by applying the adaptive algorithm for Auxiliary Variable Method. We also prove convergence of this algorithm. We validate the effectiveness of this algorithm via an numerical experiment.
