Review for NeurIPS paper: Replica-Exchange Nos\'e-Hoover Dynamics for Bayesian Learning on Large Datasets

Summary and Contributions: The paper considers the problem of sampling from the posterior distribution in Bayesian inference. To be more precise, the paper approaches the question of stochastic sampling that relies only on minibatches of data at each iteration. To achieve rapid mixing between isolated modes, the authors consider parallel tempered chains and introduce replica-exchange steps into the stochastic Nose-Hoover Dynamics. The crux of this approach is the stochastic test for the replica-exchange step. To develop such a test, the authors follow the paper [An efficient minibatch acceptance test for metropolis-hastings], which introduces the concept of correction distribution.
