# GeoSSS: Geodesic Slice Sampling on the Sphere

This python package implements two novel tuning-free MCMC algorithms, an **ideal geodesic slice sampler** based on accept/reject strategy and a **shrinkage-based geodesic slice sampler** to sample from spherical distributions on arbitrary dimensions. The package also includes the implementation of random-walk Metropolis-Hastings (RWMH) and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) whose step-size parameter is automatically tuned.
As shown in our [paper](https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2301.08056), our algorithms have outperformed RWMH and HMC for spherical distributions. 

This demo quickly illustrates that. We consider a target that is a mixture of von Mises-Fisher distribution on a 2-sphere with concentration parameter $\kappa=80$. By using $10^3$ samples, our samplers geoSSS (reject) and geoSSS (shrink) (top row) explore all modes, whereas RWMH and HMC (bottom row) get stuck in a single mode.

## Installation

GeoSSS is available for installation from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/geosss/). Therefore, simply type:

```bash
pip install geosss
```

To install dependencies required to run scripts under [`scripts/`](scripts/),

```bash
pip install geosss[extras]
```

If you want to install with the latest changes including all the dependencies,
```bash
pip install geosss[extras]@git+https://github.com/microscopic-image-analysis/geosss.git@main
```

## Getting Started

A minimal example to get started as well as reproduce the above demo:

[![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://colab.research.google.com/github/microscopic-image-analysis/geosss/blob/main/scripts/demo.ipynb)
```python
import geosss as gs
import numpy as np

# parameters for mixture of von Mises-Fisher (vMF)
# distributions
d = 3                          # required dimension
K = 3                          # number of mixture components
kappa = 80.0                   # concentration parameter

# mus (mean directions) of the vMF mixture components
mus = np.array([[0.86981638, -0.37077248, 0.32549536],
                [-0.19772391, -0.89279985, -0.40473902],
                [0.19047726, 0.22240888, -0.95616562]])

# target pdf
vmfs = [gs.VonMisesFisher(kappa*mu) for mu in mus]
pdf = gs.MixtureModel(vmfs)

# sampler parameters
n_samples = int(1e3)           # no. of samples
burnin = int(0.1 * n_samples)  # burnin samples
seed = 3521                    # sampler seed

# initial state of the samplers
init_state = np.array([-0.86333052,  0.18685286, -0.46877117])

# sampling with the four samplers
samples = {}

# geoSSS (reject): ideal geodesic slice sampler
rsss = gs.RejectionSphericalSliceSampler(pdf, init_state, seed)
samples['sss-reject'] = rsss.sample(n_samples, burnin)

# geoSSS (shrink): shrinkage-based geodesic slice sampler
ssss = gs.ShrinkageSphericalSliceSampler(pdf, init_state, seed)
samples['sss-shrink'] = ssss.sample(n_samples, burnin)

# RWMH: random-walk Metropolis Hastings
rwmh = gs.MetropolisHastings(pdf, init_state, seed)
samples['rwmh'] = rwmh.sample(n_samples, burnin)

# HMC: Hamiltonian Monte Carlo
hmc = gs.SphericalHMC(pdf, init_state, seed)
samples['hmc'] = hmc.sample(n_samples, burnin)

# visualize samples in 3d
gs.compare_samplers_3d(pdf, samples)
