Pseudo-prior augmentation for model comparison

ID: pseudo-prior-augmentation-for-model-comparison

A pseudo-prior can make model parameter vectors have equal dimensions, allowing identity-matched RJ-MCMC moves. If active and inactive coordinates share the same prior density in the two augmented targets, these factors cancel in model-switch ratios. Within-model updates must preserve the augmented target, including the inactive coordinate's pseudo-prior law.
