How to Approximate Inference with Subtractive Mixture Models

Lena Zellinger, Nicola Branchini, Lennert De Smet +3

Classical mixture models (MMs) are widely used tractable proposals for approximate inference settings such as variational inference (VI) and importance sampling (IS). Recently, mix…

Towards Adaptive Self-Normalized Importance Samplers

Nicola Branchini, Víctor Elvira

The self-normalized importance sampling (SNIS) estimator is a Monte Carlo estimator widely used to approximate expectations in statistical signal processing and machine learning. T…

Scalable Expectation Estimation with Subtractive Mixture Models

Lena Zellinger, Nicola Branchini, Víctor Elvira +1

Many Monte Carlo (MC) and importance sampling (IS) methods use mixture models (MMs) for their simplicity and ability to capture multimodal distributions. Recently, subtractive mixt…

Optimized Auxiliary Particle Filters: adapting mixture proposals via convex optimization

Nicola Branchini, Víctor Elvira

Auxiliary particle filters (APFs) are a class of sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods for Bayesian inference in state-space models. In their original derivation, APFs operate in an…
