Hi everyone, I’m currently using NUTS (not Stan but my own implementation) to sample from a distribution which describes the probability of the parameters \theta_n for a set of sinusoidal basis functions, given some time series data d (where the number of basis functions is fixed). This corresponds…

[image] betanalpha: this is an experimental design problem more than a computational one The experimental design definitely does make this a tricky problem. However, people have been successfully applying beamforming methods to these sort of problems for a long time and I’d like to think a co…

Are you maybe encountering the multimodality of periodic likelihoods that I describe here?
