Hi, I’m trying to sample from model in which I have a hierarchical prior which is a mixture of 2 2-dimensional bounded normals. I also need to keep the order of the variables and for that reason I use a Deterministic to sort the output. Here is the relevant piece of the model I’m trying to sample f…

Yep that’s what I meant. You sometimes still get OK result with sort because the trace is basically staying in one mode, but in general it is not a valid solution.
