Hamiltonian MCMC notebook: display of divergent iterations misleading? #1135

Open DavAug opened 4 years ago

DavAug commented 4 years ago

In the Hamiltonian MCMC notebook is at the very bottom the number of divergent transitions displayed.

In the notebook a number of examples are explored, each of which define a new pints.MCMCController that run 3 chains. The number of divergent transitions refers to the last chain of the first example.

Would it make sense to either display the number of divergent transitions for all examples and chains, or just display the number of divergent transitions for the last example? At the moment, it is not immediately clear that the displayed number of divergent transitions refers to an earlier run of HMC.

Maybe check who wrote it and tag them in here, @DavAug :D
