-- | Generic function to create proposals using a continuous auxiliary variable
-- of type 'Double'.
--
-- The procedure is as follows: Let \(\mathbb{X}\) be the state space and \(x\)
-- be the current state.
--
-- 1. Let \(D\) be a continuous probability distribution on \(\mathbb{D}\);
--    sample an auxiliary variable \(u \sim D\).
--
-- 2. Let \(\odot : \mathbb{X} \times \mathbb{D} \to \mathbb{X}\). Propose a
--    new state \(x' = x \odot u\).
--
-- If the proposal is unbiased, the Metropolis-Hastings-Green ratio can directly
-- be calculated using the posterior function.
--
-- However, if the proposal is biased: Let \(g : \mathbb{D} \to \mathbb{D}\);
-- \(g\) inverses the auxiliary variable \(u\) such that \(x = x' \odot g(u)\).
-- Calculate the Metropolis-Hastings-Green ratio using the posterior function,
-- \(g\), \(D\), \(u\), and possibly a Jacobian function.

  (ContDistr d, ContGen d) =>
  -- | Probability distribution

  -- | Forward operator \(\odot\).

  -- For example, for a multiplicative proposal on one variable the forward
  -- operator is @(*)@, so that \(x' = x * u\).
  (a -> Double -> a) ->
  -- | Inverse operator \(g\) of the auxiliary variable.
  --
  -- For example, 'recip' for a multiplicative proposal on one variable, since
  -- \(x' * u^{-1} = x * u * u^{-1} = x\).

  -- matrix. For example, for a multiplicative proposal on one variable, we have

  -- @
  --
  -- That is, the determinant of the Jacobian matrix of multiplication is just
  -- the reciprocal value of @u@ (with conversion to log domain).
  --
  -- Required for proposals for which the absolute value of the determinant of
  -- the Jacobian differs from 1.0.
  --
  -- Conversion to log domain is necessary, because some determinants of
  -- Jacobians are very small (or large).
