New sampling algorithm offers dimension-free multimodal exploration

Researchers have developed a new sampling algorithm called Preconditioned Annealed Langevin Dynamics (PALD) designed to improve exploration across modes in multimodal targets. The algorithm's stability across dimensions is analyzed, providing conditions under which it can achieve a prescribed accuracy within a dimension-uniform time horizon. The study also demonstrates that PALD can maintain dimension-uniform control even with imperfect initialization and approximate scores, and can prevent error accumulation across coordinates when using a misspecified mixture score model.

    Dimension-Free Multimodal Sampling via Preconditioned Annealed Langevin Dynamics

    arXiv:2602.01449v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Designing sampling algorithms for multimodal targets that remain stable under refinement of the finite-dimensional approximation of an underlying function-space problem is a central challenge. Annealed Langevin dynamics (A…
