Statistically Robust Neural Network Classification

Benjie Wang, Stefan Webb, Tom Rainforth

Despite their numerous successes, there are many scenarios where adversarial risk metrics do not provide an appropriate measure of robustness. For example, test-time perturbations…

A Unified Stochastic Gradient Approach to Designing Bayesian-Optimal Experiments

Adam Foster, Martin Jankowiak, Matthew O'Meara +2

We introduce a fully stochastic gradient based approach to Bayesian optimal experimental design (BOED). Our approach utilizes variational lower bounds on the expected information g…

Divide, Conquer, and Combine: a New Inference Strategy for Probabilistic Programs with Stochastic Support

Yuan Zhou, Hongseok Yang, Yee Whye Teh +1

Universal probabilistic programming systems (PPSs) provide a powerful framework for specifying rich probabilistic models. They further attempt to automate the process of drawing in…

Amortized Rejection Sampling in Universal Probabilistic Programming

Saeid Naderiparizi, Adam Ścibior, Andreas Munk +9

Naive approaches to amortized inference in probabilistic programs with unbounded loops can produce estimators with infinite variance. This is particularly true of importance sampli…

Amortized Monte Carlo Integration

Adam Goliński, Frank Wood, Tom Rainforth

Current approaches to amortizing Bayesian inference focus solely on approximating the posterior distribution. Typically, this approximation is, in turn, used to calculate expectati…

Hijacking Malaria Simulators with Probabilistic Programming

Bradley Gram-Hansen, Christian Schröder de Witt, Tom Rainforth +3

Epidemiology simulations have become a fundamental tool in the fight against the epidemics of various infectious diseases like AIDS and malaria. However, the complicated and stocha…
