logit_transform
Utilize the logit transformation to reduce sample rejection for bounded domains
Specification
Alias: None
Arguments: None
Description
The logit transformation performs an internal variable transformation from bounded domains to unbounded domains in order to reduce sample rejection due to an out-of-bounds condition.
Default Behavior
This option is experimental at present, and is therefore defaulted off.
Usage Tips
This option can be helpful when regions of high posterior density exist in the corners of a multi-dimensional bounded domain. In these cases, it may be difficult to generate feasible samples from the proposal density, such that transformation to unbounded domains may greatly reduce sample rejection rates.
