Efficient Sampling of Non Log-Concave Posterior Distributions With Mixture of Noises

Résumé

This article focuses on a challenging class of inverse problems that is often encountered in applications. The forward model is a complex non-linear black-box, potentially non-injective, whose outputs cover multiple decades in amplitude. Observations are supposed to be simultaneously damaged by additive and multiplicative noises and censorship. As needed in many applications, the aim of this work is to provide uncertainty quantification on top of parameter estimates. The resulting log-likelihood is intractable and potentially non-log-concave. An adapted Bayesian approach is proposed to provide credibility intervals along with point estimates. An MCMC algorithm is proposed to deal with the multimodal posterior distribution, even in a situation where there is no global Lipschitz constant (or it is very large). It combines two kernels, namely an improved version of PMALA (Li, 2016) and a Multiple Try Metropolis (MTM) kernel (Liu et al., 2021). This sampler addresses all the challenges induced by the complex form of the likelihood. The proposed method is illustrated on classical test multimodal distributions as well as on a challenging and realistic inverse problem in astronomy.
