Monte Carlo Variational Auto-Encoders
Achille Thin, Nikita Kotelevskii, Arnaud Doucet +3
Variational auto-encoders (VAE) are popular deep latent variable models which are trained by maximizing an Evidence Lower Bound (ELBO). To obtain tighter ELBO and hence better vari…

MetFlow: A New Efficient Method for Bridging the Gap between Markov Chain Monte Carlo and Variational Inference
Achille Thin, Nikita Kotelevskii, Jean-Stanislas Denain +4
In this contribution, we propose a new computationally efficient method to combine Variational Inference (VI) with Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). This approach can be used with g…
