To compile the slides, you need to have Matlab installed on your computer. Matlab is used to produce three figures in the slides (those illustrating the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm). You also need to install matlab2tikz which is provoided as a submodule.

1. Install the submodule

   ~$ git submodule --init
   

2. Modify the MATLAB variable in plot/Makefile (you need to provide the path to matlab binary)

3. Use the makefile in the root directory:

   ~$ make
   

   This will trigger the build of the figures and compile the TeX files (in tex subfolder).
