Maximum Likelihood Training of Score-Based Diffusion Models
Yang Song, Conor Durkan, Iain Murray +1
Score-based diffusion models synthesize samples by reversing a stochastic process that diffuses data to noise, and are trained by minimizing a weighted combination of score matchin…
On Contrastive Learning for Likelihood-free Inference
Conor Durkan, Iain Murray, George Papamakarios
Likelihood-free methods perform parameter inference in stochastic simulator models where evaluating the likelihood is intractable but sampling synthetic data is possible. One class…
Cubic-Spline Flows
Conor Durkan, Artur Bekasov, Iain Murray +1
A normalizing flow models a complex probability density as an invertible transformation of a simple density. The invertibility means that we can evaluate densities and generate sam…
Neural Spline Flows
Conor Durkan, Artur Bekasov, Iain Murray +1
A normalizing flow models a complex probability density as an invertible transformation of a simple base density. Flows based on either coupling or autoregressive transforms both o…
Autoregressive Energy Machines
Charlie Nash, Conor Durkan
Neural density estimators are flexible families of parametric models which have seen widespread use in unsupervised machine learning in recent years. Maximum-likelihood training ty…
Sequential Neural Methods for Likelihood-free Inference
Conor Durkan, George Papamakarios, Iain Murray
Likelihood-free inference refers to inference when a likelihood function cannot be explicitly evaluated, which is often the case for models based on simulators. Most of the literat…
