-- | Proposal dimension.
--
-- The number of affected, independent parameters.
--
-- The dimension is used to calculate the optimal acceptance rate, and does not
-- have to be exact.
--
-- Usually, the optimal acceptance rate of low dimensional proposals is higher
-- than for high dimensional ones. However, this is not always true (see below).
--
-- Further, optimal acceptance rates are still subject to controversies. To my
-- knowledge, research has focused on random walk proposals with multivariate
-- normal distributions of dimension @d@. In this case, the following acceptance
-- rates are desired:
--
-- - one dimension: 0.44 (numerical results);
--
-- - five and more dimensions: 0.234 (numerical results);
--
-- - infinite dimensions: 0.234 (theorem for specific target distributions).
--
-- See Handbook of Markov chain Monte Carlo, chapter 4.
--
-- Of course, many proposals may not be classical random walk proposals. For
-- example, the beta proposal on a simplex ('Mcmc.Proposal.Simplex.beta')
-- samples one new variable of the simplex from a beta distribution while
-- rescaling all other variables. What is the dimension of this proposal? Here,
-- the dimension is set to 2. The reason is that if the dimension of the simplex
-- is 2, two variables are changed. If the dimension of the simplex is high, one
-- variable is changed substantially, while all others are changed marginally.
--
-- Further, if a proposal changes a number of variables in the same way (and not
-- independently like in a random walk proposal), the dimension of the proposal
-- is set to the number of variables changed.
--
-- Moreover, proposals of unknown dimension are assumed to have high dimension,
-- and the optimal acceptance rate 0.234 is used.
--
-- Finally, special proposals may have completely different desired acceptance
-- rates. For example. the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo proposal (see
-- Mcmc.Proposal.Hamiltonian.hmc) has a desired acceptance rate of 0.65.
-- Specific acceptance rates can be set with 'PSpecial'.

-- | A 'Proposal' is an instruction about how the Markov chain will traverse the
-- state space @a@. Essentially, it is a probability mass or probability density
-- conditioned on the current state (i.e., a Markov kernel).
--
-- A 'Proposal' may be tuneable in that it contains information about how to
-- enlarge or shrink the proposal size to decrease or increase the acceptance
-- rate.
--
-- Predefined proposals are provided. To create custom proposals, one may use
-- the convenience function 'createProposal'.
