Inspired by a forum question whose answer would have been easier if we had implemented DiscreteHMM.sample() for generating data. In addition, Bayesian workflow recommends sanity checking models by generating data. We already have .rsample() methods for GaussianHMM and LinearHMM.

Tested

  • added lots of shape tests
  • added a simple test of distribution

@fritzo fritzo added this to the 1.9 release milestone Mar 21, 2022

generally looks good but this sample method is non-parallel in contrast to all (?) other *HMM code. should at least comment in the docstring, which purports to parallelize over time?
