The paper is going to appear in the Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics.
The package is also available on CRAN.
The package allows to create the plots shown in the article. It supports both discrete and continuous target distributions. See the demo/ and the inst/ sub-folders for examples.
Other methods are implemented, such as adaptive Metropolis-Hastings and SMC sampler.
