latinize

Adjust samples to improve the discrepancy of the marginal distributions

## Specification

Alias: none

Argument(s): none

Default: No latinization

## Description

The `latinize` control takes the samples and "latinizes" them, meaning that each original sample is moved so that it falls into one strata or bin in each dimension as in Latin Hypercube sampling. The default setting is NOT to latinize. However, one may be interested in doing this in situations where one wants better discrepancy of the 1-dimensional projections (the marginal distributions).
