Acceptance probabilities for the GY model from Section 3.2. In all cases the beginning state is AAA. In the left-hand plot, the ending state is AAG, in the middle plot the ending state is AAC, and in the right-hand plot the ending state is TTT. Rejection sampling is very efficient in the situation depicted on the left, less efficient in the middle, and not practical in the right.
