New non-reversible Langevin dynamics accelerate sampling for complex distributions

Researchers have introduced Non-reversible Anchored Langevin Dynamics (NALD) and Non-reversible Reflected Anchored Langevin Dynamics (NRALD) for improved sampling in machine learning. These new methods are designed to handle non-smooth and heavy-tailed target distributions, even in constrained spaces, without needing to compute derivatives of the target density. By incorporating a circulation drift and stream potential, NALD and NRALD can achieve faster convergence than their reversible counterparts, as demonstrated through theoretical analysis and numerical experiments.
