flowMC - flowMC-0.4.1

This PR provides a couple of enhancements: 1. LogPDF is now a resource, meaning in the more advance case, the users can specify multiple logPDFs. This helps use cases such as discrete-continuous sampling as well as parallel tempering. 2. Add parallel tempering strategy 3. Strategies within the sampler is now promoted to be a dictionary instead of a list, making strategies to be reusable without recompilation

flowMC - flowMC-0.4.0

This is a major release of flowMC. The main changes includes the addition of a new intermediate API centers around the resource-strategy design, where users can customize the sampling algorithm to employ more complex algorithm. There are some breaking changes in the top level API but it should be relatively straightforward to migrate from the older flowMC version to this version.

flowMC - flowMC-0.3.0

The version release focuses on cleaning up the internal API, which should makes the study of auto-tuning way easier now. The top level API remains relatively unchanged. On the performance side, most noticeably the compilation time of the normalizing flow has been reduced significantly.

For the next version of flowMC (0.4.0), the main focus will be some sort of auto-tune and adding more potential strategies in the mix, including 1. using importance sampling with normalizing flow to further improve the sampling results 2. Start the normalizing flow with some variational inference scheme instead of from scratch.

flowMC - flowMC-0.2.1

Two significant changes in this release, following PR #118 and PR #123.

Now there is a black box optimization interface using evosax, an evolutionary algorithm to find the optimum of the likelihood function. In our experience, this works better and is more paralleled compared to packages such as jaxopt.

In PR #123, we re-haul a large chunk of the normalizing flow interface. We now have deprecated flax and distrax in favor of equinox. More information can be find in the specific PR note
