Description

Implements the t-walk algorithm, a general-purpose, self-adjusting Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampler for continuous distributions as described by Christen & Fox (2010) <doi:10.1214/10-BA603>. The t-walk requires no tuning and is robust for a wide range of target distributions, including high-dimensional and multimodal problems. The sampler is implemented in C++ and validated against a pure R reference implementation of the published algorithm. The package supports reproducible parallel chains, continuation of runs, single transitions for hybrid samplers, and convergence diagnostics following Vehtari et al. (2021) <doi:10.1214/20-BA1221>.
