We study the problem of sampling from target distributions whose potentials are simultaneously non-smooth, subject to superlinear gradient growth, and non-convex. We introduce the Subgradient Tamed Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (SG-TULA), a discretisation of the Langevin diffusion that operates directly on subgradients, without relying on computationally demanding smoothing procedures.

Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are a natural tool for post-hoc conditioning of pretrained generative models, but in many applications the mutation kernels used by the particle system are biased approximations of an ideal Feynman--Kac flow. This paper develops a non-asymptotic error analysis for such SMC samplers.
arXiv:2404. 05185v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper deals with a class of neural SDEs and studies the limiting behavior of the associated sampled optimal control problems as the sample size grows to infinity.
