class AdaptiveMetropolis(StepMethod):

    """
    The AdaptativeMetropolis (AM) sampling algorithm works like a regular
    Metropolis, with the exception that stochastic parameters are block-updated
    using a multivariate jump distribution whose covariance is tuned during
    sampling. Although the chain is non-Markovian, i.e. the proposal
    distribution is asymmetric, it has correct ergodic properties. See
    (Haario et al., 2001) for details.

    :Parameters:
      - stochastic : PyMC objects
          Stochastic objects to be handled by the AM algorith,

      - cov : array
          Initial guess for the covariance matrix C. If it is None, the
          covariance will be estimated using the scales dictionary if provided,
          the existing trace if available, or the current stochastics value.
          It is suggested to provide a sensible guess for the covariance, and
          not rely on the automatic assignment from stochastics value.

      - delay : int
          Number of steps before the empirical covariance is computed. If greedy
          is True, the algorithm waits for delay *accepted* steps before computing
          the covariance.

      - interval : int
          Interval between covariance updates. Higher dimensional spaces require
          more samples to obtain reliable estimates for the covariance updates.

      - greedy : bool
          If True, only the accepted jumps are tallied in the internal trace
          until delay is reached. This is useful to make sure that the empirical
          covariance has a sensible structure.

      - shrink_if_necessary : bool
          If True, the acceptance rate is checked when the step method tunes. If
          the acceptance rate is small, the proposal covariance is shrunk according
          to the following rule:

          if acc_rate < .001:
              self.C *= .01
          elif acc_rate < .01:
              self.C *= .25

      - scales : dict
          Dictionary containing the scale for each stochastic keyed by name.
          If cov is None, those scales are used to define an initial covariance
          matrix. If neither cov nor scale is given, the initial covariance is
          guessed from the trace (it if exists) or the objects value, alt

      - verbose : int
          Controls the verbosity level.


    :Notes:
    Use the methods: `cov_from_scales`, `cov_from_trace` and `cov_from_values` for
    more control on the creation of an initial covariance matrix. A lot of problems
    can be avoided with a good initial covariance and long enough intervals between
    covariance updates. That is, do not compensate for a bad covariance guess by
    reducing the interval between updates thinking the covariance matrix will
    converge more rapidly.
