Nested sampling performs well compared to Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)-based alternatives at exploring multimodal and degenerate distributions, and the ``PolyChord`` software is well-suited to high-dimensional problems. Dynamic nested sampling [@Higson2017b] is a generalisation of the nested sampling algorithm which dynamically allocates samples to the regions of the posterior where they will have the greatest effect on calculation accuracy. This allows order-of-magnitude increases in computational efficiency, with the largest gains for high dimensional parameter estimation problems.
