About pymc3.plots.energyplot(), how should I judge based on the plot, telling if it explored the marginal energy distribution extremely efficiently? Or I should just use trace.get_sampler_stats? Does that mean the plot just gives an intuitive idea of the exploration? Is there a default value f…

The best explanation on the energy plot is in Michael Betancourt’s A Conceptual Introduction to Hamiltonian Monte Carlo : see Fig 23, Fig 34 and the related text. In brief you want the two distribution (energy and energy transition) as close as possible. If you have the energy transition distributi…
