Copula Active Subspaces II: Error Decomposition, A Posteriori Estimation, and Sharpness of the Bounds

Joshua Chen, Peter Jan van Leeuwen

The Copula Active Subspaces (CAS) method of Part I estimates a non-Gaussian observation-noise density from residual samples. Its KL divergence $\mathcal{D}_{\m…

LazyDINO: Fast, scalable, and efficiently amortized Bayesian inversion via structure-exploiting and surrogate-driven measure transport

Lianghao Cao, Joshua Chen, Michael Brennan +3

We present LazyDINO, a transport map variational inference method for fast, scalable, and efficiently amortized solutions of high-dimensional nonlinear Bayesian inverse problems wi…

Gaussian mixture Taylor approximations of risk measures constrained by PDEs with Gaussian random field inputs

Dingcheng Luo, Joshua Chen, Peng Chen +1

This work considers the computation of risk measures for quantities of interest governed by PDEs with Gaussian random field parameters using Taylor approximations. While efficient,…

Bayesian model calibration for block copolymer self-assembly: Likelihood-free inference and expected information gain computation via measure transport

Ricardo Baptista, Lianghao Cao, Joshua Chen +4

We consider the Bayesian calibration of models describing the phenomenon of block copolymer (BCP) self-assembly using image data produced by microscopy or X-ray scattering techniqu…

A stochastic Stein Variational Newton method

Alex Leviyev, Joshua Chen, Yifei Wang +2

Stein variational gradient descent (SVGD) is a general-purpose optimization-based sampling algorithm that has recently exploded in popularity, but is limited by two issues: it is k…

Projected Stein Variational Newton: A Fast and Scalable Bayesian Inference Method in High Dimensions

Peng Chen, Keyi Wu, Joshua Chen +2

We propose a fast and scalable variational method for Bayesian inference in high-dimensional parameter space, which we call projected Stein variational Newton (pSVN) method. We exp…
