Exponential ergodicity for Markov processes with random switching

B Cloez, M Hairer - 2015 - projecteuclid.org
We study a Markov process with two components: the first component evolves according to
one of finitely many underlying Markovian dynamics, with a choice of dynamics that changes …

A piecewise deterministic scaling limit of lifted Metropolis–Hastings in the Curie–Weiss model

J Bierkens, G Roberts - 2017 - projecteuclid.org
Abstract In Turitsyn, Chertkov and Vucelja Phys. D 240 (2011) 410–414 a nonreversible
Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method on an augmented state space was introduced …

Piecewise deterministic Markov process—recent results

R Azaïs, JB Bardet, A Génadot, N Krell… - Esaim: Proceedings, 2014 - esaim-proc.org
We give a short overview of recent results on a specific class of Markov process: the
Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes (PDMPs). We first recall the definition of these …

Quantitative ergodicity for some switched dynamical systems

M Benaïm, S Le Borgne, F Malrieu, PA Zitt - 2012 - projecteuclid.org
We provide quantitative bounds for the long time behavior of a class of Piecewise
Deterministic Markov Processes with state space R^d*E where E is a finite set. The …

Some simple but challenging Markov processes

F Malrieu - Annales de la Faculté des sciences de …, 2015 - afst.centre-mersenne.org
In this note, we present few examples of Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes and
their long time behavior. They share two important features: they are related to concrete …

Piecewise deterministic simulated annealing

P Monmarché - arXiv preprint arXiv:1410.1656, 2014 - arxiv.org
Given an energy potential on the Euclidian space, a piecewise deterministic Markov process
is designed to sample the corresponding Gibbs measure. In dimension one an Eyring …

Limit theorems for the zig-zag process

J Bierkens, A Duncan - Advances in Applied Probability, 2017 - cambridge.org
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods provide an essential tool in statistics for
sampling from complex probability distributions. While the standard approach to MCMC …

[HTML][HTML] Long time behavior of telegraph processes under convex potentials

J Fontbona, H Guérin, F Malrieu - Stochastic Processes and their …, 2016 - Elsevier
We study the long-time behavior of variants of the telegraph process with position-
dependent jump-rates, which result in a monotone gradient-like drift towards the origin. We …

Quantifying the accuracy of approximate diffusions and Markov chains

J Huggins, J Zou - Artificial Intelligence and Statistics, 2017 - proceedings.mlr.press
Markov chains and diffusion processes are indispensable tools in machine learning and
statistics that are used for inference, sampling, and modeling. With the growth of large-scale …
