Hi, Qinghua
the selection score is the ratio of the replica selection weight over the
total weight,
so if you have 8 replicas here, and the score is below 1/8, the walker will
keep
itself. If the score is between 1/8 and 2/8, the walker will be copied to 2
walkers, as
shown like => 2 walkers.
When the entropy is above the threshold, the selection will be calculated,
but if
every selection score is below 1/8, there will be no resampling, every
walker will
be kept just itself.
Best
Feng
