- Applications of Probabilistic Programming (Master's thesis, 2015) (2016, methodology): “…(Perov and Mansinghka, 2012)), by an intermediate compilation instead of a continuous interpretation (e.g. the recent Anglican implementation (Tolpin et al., 2015b), with a program compilation into a Clojure function, works faster than the previous Anglican interpreter (Wood et al., 2014)),…”
- Probabilistic programming with programmable inference (2018, methodology): “Prominent examples of language/inference strategy pairs include Stan [3] with Hamiltonian Monte Carlo inference [2]; WebPPL [17] with Single-Variable Metropolis-Hastings inference, Black Box variational inference, and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo inference; and Anglican [47] with particle Gibbs sampling.”
