Sampling algorithms include: -- Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC-NUTS) sampler +- No-U-Turn Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (`NUTS`) sampler +- Historical implementation of the original No-U-Turn HMC (`NUTS_classic`) sampler - Langevin sampler (*under development*) See the [nimble user manual](https://r-nimble.org/html_manual/cha-mcmc.html#subsec:HMC) for more information and examples.
