Penalized Nonreversible Langevin for Constrained Sampling

We propose penalized nonreversible Langevin algorithms for sampling from $\pi(x)\propto e^{-f(x)}\mathbf 1_{\mathcal C}(x)$, where $\mathcal C\subset\mathbb R^d$ is a compact convex set. The algorithms combine a squared distance penalty with constant or compatible state dependent skew symmetric perturbations that prese...
