We demonstrate theoretically and empirically that we can also construct a control-variate subsampling boomerang sampler which is also exact, and which possesses remarkable scaling properties in the large data limit.

We introduce the use of the Zig-Zag sampler to the problem of sampling conditional diffusion processes (diffusion bridges).

Piecewise Deterministic Monte Carlo algorithms enable simulation from a posterior distribution, whilst only needing to access a sub-sample of data at each iteration.

Recently there have been exciting developments in Monte Carlo methods, with the development of new MCMC and sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) algorithms which are based on continuous-time, rather than discrete-time, Markov processes.

Standard MCMC methods can scale poorly to big data settings due to the need to evaluate the likelihood at each iteration.
