Phased antenna array design using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo

Phased antenna arrays allow a radio or microwave beam to be steered electronically. They are of increasing practical importance. Phased array optimisation problems are non-convex with multiple local maxima and saddle points. Traditional gradient based…

Statistical physics vs Bayesian inference

Statistical physics and Bayesian inference are closely related (see Andrew Gelman’s remarks here for example). A good way to illustrate the relationship is to simulate a statistical physics model using the “state-of-the-art full Bayesian statistical inference…
