arXiv:2505.12487v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multiple-proposal MCMC algorithms have recently gained attention for their potential to improve performance, especially through parallel implementation on modern hardware. We introduce Stereographic Multiple-Try Metropolis (SMTM), a novel family of gradient-free algorithms designed for sampling high-dimensional distributions. By integrating multiple-try Metropolis (MTM) with the stereographic MCMC framework, SMTM overcomes the traditional limitations of MTM, particularly its pathological convergence behavior often observed in high dimensions. For both light-tailed and heavy-tailed targets, SMTM not only outperforms classical MTM and the existing stereographic random-walk Metropolis but also demonstrates strong robustness to tuning. These advantages are supported by high-dimensional scaling analysis and validated through extensive simulation studies.
