Affine Tracing: A New Paradigm for Probabilistic Linear Solvers
Disha Hegde, Marvin Pförtner, Jon Cockayne
Probabilistic linear solvers (PLSs) return probability distributions that quantify uncertainty due to limited computation in the solution of linear systems. The literature has trad…
Sample Path Regularity of Gaussian Processes from the Covariance Kernel
Nathaël Da Costa, Marvin Pförtner, Lancelot Da Costa +1
Gaussian processes (GPs) are the most common formalism for defining probability distributions over spaces of functions. While applications of GPs are myriad, a comprehensive unders…
laplax -- Laplace Approximations with JAX
Tobias Weber, Bálint Mucsányi, Lenard Rommel +4
The Laplace approximation provides a scalable and efficient means of quantifying weight-space uncertainty in deep neural networks, enabling the application of Bayesian tools such a…
Flexible and Efficient Probabilistic PDE Solvers through Gaussian Markov Random Fields
Tim Weiland, Marvin Pförtner, Philipp Hennig
Mechanistic knowledge about the physical world is virtually always expressed via partial differential equations (PDEs). Recently, there has been a surge of interest in probabilisti…
Reparameterization invariance in approximate Bayesian inference
Hrittik Roy, Marco Miani, Carl Henrik Ek +4
Current approximate posteriors in Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) exhibit a crucial limitation: they fail to maintain invariance under reparameterization, i.e. BNNs assign differen…
Linearization Turns Neural Operators into Function-Valued Gaussian Processes
Emilia Magnani, Marvin Pförtner, Tobias Weber +1
Neural operators generalize neural networks to learn mappings between function spaces from data. They are commonly used to learn solution operators of parametric partial differenti…
