Dear All,
I am doing some work with metropolis and I noted that the seeds for parallel chains are initialized at the same status, so that the chains only differ by the first point, but the random sequences are the same: this implies that sequences for each parameter from different chains are correlated (just compare the values from different blocks stored in files _mhxx_blck1.mat _mhxx_blck2.mat). I am wandering if this is on purpose or this behavior is not desirable.
best Marco
