Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Theoretical Our work generalizes the results of Vempala and Wibisono [2019] where f is defined on a manifold M rather than Rn. From technical point of view, we show that KL decreases in a geometric rate whenever the distribution e f satisfies a log-Sobolev inequality on M. Our main technical contributions are: A non-asymptotic convergence guarantee for Geodesic Langevin algorithm on closed manifold is provided, with the help of log-Sobolev inequality.
