where MCMC sampling is depicted by loss surface with scattering points. This is not very representative of MCMC IMO. I wonder whether we can find alternative visualisation, e.g.

custom_2_0

Or, those from https://arviz-devs.github.io/arviz/

That is 100% rad. @trappmartin do you have the code for that graph handy still?

Sure, but let me tweak it a little so that it is somewhat modular. The current version is pretty much quick and dirty. 馃樃
