getMarkovianZigzagSample: Draw one Markovian zigzag sample

In hdtg: Generate Samples from Multivariate Truncated Normal Distributions

Draw one Markovian zigzag sample

Description

Simulate the Markovian zigzag dynamics for a given position over a specified travel time.

Usage

getMarkovianZigzagSample(position, velocity = NULL, engine, travelTime)

Arguments

position	a d-dimensional position vector.
velocity	optional d-dimensional velocity vector. If NULL, it will be generated within the function.
engine	an object representing the Markovian zigzag engine, typically containing settings and state required for the simulation.
travelTime	the duration for which the dynamics are simulated.

Value

A list containing the position and velocity after simulating the dynamics.

Examples

# First create an engine
set.seed(123)
engine <- createEngine(
  dimension = 2,
  lowerBounds = c(-1, -1),
  upperBounds = c(1, 1),
  seed = 123,
  mean = c(0, 0),
  precision = diag(2)
)

# Draw a single Markovian zigzag sample
position <- c(0.1, -0.2)
travel_time <- 0.5
sample_result <- getMarkovianZigzagSample(
  position = position,
  engine = engine,
  travelTime = travel_time
)
sample_result
