Nonlinear ICA Using Auxiliary Variables and Generalized Contrastive Learning

Aapo Hyvarinen, Hiroaki Sasaki, Richard E. Turner

Nonlinear ICA is a fundamental problem for unsupervised representation learning, emphasizing the capacity to recover the underlying latent variables generating the data (i.e., iden…

A determinant-free method to simulate the parameters of large Gaussian fields

Louis Ellam, Heiko Strathmann, Mark Girolami +1

We propose a determinant-free approach for simulation-based Bayesian inference in high-dimensional Gaussian models. We introduce auxiliary variables with covariance equal to the in…

Adaptive regularization for Lasso models in the context of non-stationary data streams

Ricardo Pio Monti, Christoforos Anagnostopoulos, Giovanni Montana

Large scale, streaming datasets are ubiquitous in modern machine learning. Streaming algorithms must be scalable, amenable to incremental training and robust to the presence of non…

Interpretable Distribution Features with Maximum Testing Power

Wittawat Jitkrittum, Zoltan Szabo, Kacper Chwialkowski +1

Two semimetrics on probability distributions are proposed, given as the sum of differences of expectations of analytic functions evaluated at spatial or frequency locations (i.e, f…

A Kernel Test of Goodness of Fit

Kacper Chwialkowski, Heiko Strathmann, Arthur Gretton

We propose a nonparametric statistical test for goodness-of-fit: given a set of samples, the test determines how likely it is that these were generated from a target density functi…

K2-ABC: Approximate Bayesian Computation with Kernel Embeddings

Mijung Park, Wittawat Jitkrittum, Dino Sejdinovic

Complicated generative models often result in a situation where computing the likelihood of observed data is intractable, while simulating from the conditional density given a para…
