For unnormalized model posterior densities hj​, model-selection probabilities sjk​ and parameter-proposal densities qjk​, accept a proposal (j,θ)→(k,θ′) with the minimum of one and hk​(θ′)skj​(θ′)qkj​(θ∣θ′)/[hj​(θ)sjk​(θ)qjk​(θ′∣θ)]. A deterministic matching-map formulation instead includes its explicit Jacobian determinant; it must not be counted again when already absorbed into a direct proposal density.
