  • requires full gradient
  • how to introduce mini-batch?
    • correct using MH?
      • low acceptance rate or high computational time
    • introduce friction: second-order Langevin dynamics
  • naive SGHMC
    • what’s the effect of stochastic var.?
      • entropy increases!
    • introducing friction
    • simular to slides
