In the old c++ version of this code, I did have parallel tempering support, however it did not make it into the Julia version.
The way I would implement it nowadays is as a kind of adapter ParallelTemperingMC{MC <: AbstractMC} <: AbstractMC
that itself acts like a normal AbstractMC
(in parallel-run mode) and performs parallel tempering on an underlying MC implementation.
This is on the to-do list for a future version of Carlo.jl. In case someone needs it for their research now, I am happy to provide support with implementing it yourself.
Thanks for the quick response! That sounds promising. I would have to get more familiar with the software, but I’d be interested to have a look at the parallel tempering in the future. Thank you for the offer of support!
All the best, Roman
Hi everyone,
Thanks for developing this nice software package! I was thinking about rewriting my not-so-organized MC code using this software package and was wondering if there is support for parallel tempering / replica-exchange MCMC sampling using MPI?
All the best, Roman
