Faithful Inversion of Generative Models for Effective Amortized Inference
Stefan Webb, Adam Golinski, Robert Zinkov +4
Inference amortization methods share information across multiple posterior-inference problems, allowing each to be carried out more efficiently. Generally, they require the inversi…
Bayesian Optimization for Probabilistic Programs
Tom Rainforth, Tuan Anh Le, Jan-Willem van de Meent +2
We present the first general purpose framework for marginal maximum a posteriori estimation of probabilistic program variables. By using a series of code transformations, the evide…
Auto-Encoding Sequential Monte Carlo
Tuan Anh Le, Maximilian Igl, Tom Rainforth +2
We build on auto-encoding sequential Monte Carlo (AESMC): a method for model and proposal learning based on maximizing the lower bound to the log marginal likelihood in a broad fam…
