Current master will possibly generate NaN when a and b are both small(<0.001). NaN is produced when x and y are accidentally both zero. We should regenerate the (x,y) pair when this happens.
We can't just apply a Bernoulli(p=0.5) to randomly give x or y a non-zero value, since they are only equally possible when a==b.
