Implicit Deep Adaptive Design: Policy-Based Experimental Design without Likelihoods

Desi R. Ivanova, Adam Foster, Steven Kleinegesse +2

We introduce implicit Deep Adaptive Design (iDAD), a new method for performing adaptive experiments in real-time with implicit models. iDAD amortizes the cost of Bayesian optimal e…

On Contrastive Representations of Stochastic Processes

Emile Mathieu, Adam Foster, Yee Whye Teh

Learning representations of stochastic processes is an emerging problem in machine learning with applications from meta-learning to physical object models to time series. Typical m…

Deep Adaptive Design: Amortizing Sequential Bayesian Experimental Design

Adam Foster, Desi R. Ivanova, Ilyas Malik +1

We introduce Deep Adaptive Design (DAD), a method for amortizing the cost of adaptive Bayesian experimental design that allows experiments to be run in real-time. Traditional seque…

Improving Transformation Invariance in Contrastive Representation Learning

Adam Foster, Rattana Pukdee, Tom Rainforth

We propose methods to strengthen the invariance properties of representations obtained by contrastive learning. While existing approaches implicitly induce a degree of invariance a…

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…

Variational Bayesian Optimal Experimental Design

Adam Foster, Martin Jankowiak, Eli Bingham +4

Bayesian optimal experimental design (BOED) is a principled framework for making efficient use of limited experimental resources. Unfortunately, its applicability is hampered by th…
