Fig. S1 and Fig. S2 are continuations of Figure 1. This work was conducted while David Eriksson was at Uber AI. Figure S2: Randomized SVD relative error at computing In all cases, randomized SVD is unable to achieve a relative error better than about 0. 25. Fig. S3 further demonstrates the effect of preconditioning on msMINRES-CIQ. To further compare msMINRES-CIQ to randomized methods, Fig. S4 plots the empirical covariance Cholesky-based sampling tend to have very similar empirical covariance error. This additional error is due to the randomness in the RFF approximation.










Rapidly Mixing Multiple-try Metropolis Algorithms for Model Selection Problems

Neural Information Processing Systems

The multiple-try Metropolis (MTM) algorithm is an extension of the Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm by selecting the proposed state among multiple trials according to some weight function. Although MTM has gained great popularity owing to its faster empirical convergence and mixing than the standard MH algorithm, its theoretical mixing property is rarely studied in the literature due to its complex proposal scheme.
