Hi @JaimeRZP, I think this is a historical issue - the AHMC.sample function predates the AbstractMCMC package. We can now depreciate the AHMC.sample function and remove it in future releases. We can promote the AbstractMCMC.sample API more so users can switch to this interface.

from advancedhmc.jl.

Ok that's interesting. I was proposing to get rid of both but keep the instance of AbstractMCMC.sample seems reasonable to me. One thing that I am doing in #325 is to change the signature of AbstractMCMC.sample from:

function AbstractMCMC.sample(
    model::LogDensityModel,
    kernel::AbstractMCMCKernel,
    metric::AbstractMetric,
    adaptor::AbstractAdaptor,
    N::Integer;
    kwargs...,
)

to

function AbstractMCMC.sample(
    model::LogDensityModel,
    sampler::AbstractHMCSampler,
    N::Integer;
    kwargs...,
)

where AbstractHMCSampler is the umbrella type of all new constructors.

Do we still need this function after #325? It feels a bit redundant to me. Maybe we can depreciate it?

I think even though #325 is now merged.
Having this function here is probably still useful if users want to use the AbstractMCMC interface without loading Turing.
However, I would remove AHMC.Sample.
