hgm (version 1.10)

Holonomic Gradient Method and Gradient Descent

Description

The holonomic gradient method (HGM, hgm) gives a way to evaluate normalization constants of unnormalized probability distributions by utilizing holonomic systems of differential or difference equations. The holonomic gradient descent (HGD, hgd) gives a method to find maximal likelihood estimates by utilizing the HGM.
