Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We apply the pseudo-marginal multi-fidelity MCMC approach to several problems, including log-Gaussian Cox process modeling, Bayesian ODE system identification, PDE-constrained optimization, and Gaussian process parameter inference.
Researcher Affiliation Academia Diana Cai Department of Computer Science Princeton University dcai@cs.princeton.edu Ryan P. Adams Department of Computer Science Princeton University rpa@princeton.edu
Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Multi-fidelity Monte Carlo with sign-correction
Open Source Code Yes 3. If you ran experiments...(a) Did you include the code, data, and instructions needed to reproduce the main experimental results (either in the supplemental material or as a URL)? [Yes] See Appendix F.
Open Datasets Yes We apply multi-fidelity and single-fidelity ESS algorithms to a coal mining disasters data set (Carlin et al. [9]).
Dataset Splits No The paper does not explicitly provide training/test/validation dataset splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not explicitly describe the hardware used to run its experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific software dependencies with version numbers.
Experiment Setup Yes In all experiments, we use a random-walk M-H update to sample from the conditional K|θ, and truncation distribution µ(K) = geometric(K; γ0).
