Abstract: Gradient-based Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are often introduced as a catalog of algorithms: Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC), the Metropolis-adjusted Langevin algorithm (MALA), the No-U-Turn Sampler (NUTS), and several underdamped variants. This presentation obscures the common structure of the methods and, more importantly, the reasons why a sampler that is correct in principle may be ineffective in practice. We develop a unified account, beginning with exact continuous-time dynamics that represent idealized sampling methods and for which Metropolis adjustments are not required. Numerical discretization makes the dynamics computationally feasible but introduces bias. Metropolis adjustment removes the asymptotic bias by converting numerical errors into rejection, leading to HMC, MALA, NUTS, and the Metropolis-adjusted kinetic Langevin algorithm (MAKLA).
The second half of the paper presents geometric design choices that determine practical performance, namely, although MAKLA and NUTS have nice theoretical properties, their sampling efficiency may be slow in practice. Importantly, a fixed mass matrix can whiten globally anisotropic targets, often fixing sampling inefficiency in Bayesian posteriors with large data. Whereas hierarchical posteriors introduce their own problem, causing state-dependent variation in the Hessian (e.g., Neal's funnel). We explain how a randomized step size can be used effectively to sample from such a distribution. The resulting paper is both a tutorial on the mechanics of gradient-based sampling and a set of practical recipes to improve sampler performance.
