Bayesian data fusion with shared priors

Peng Wu, Tales Imbiriba, Victor Elvira +1

The integration of data and knowledge from several sources is known as data fusion. When data is only available in a distributed fashion or when different sensors are used to infer…

Regularized Rényi divergence minimization through Bregman proximal gradient algorithms

Thomas Guilmeau, Emilie Chouzenoux, Víctor Elvira

We study the variational inference problem of minimizing a regularized Rényi divergence over an exponential family. We propose to solve this problem with a Bregman proximal gradien…

Gradient-based Adaptive Importance Samplers

Víctor Elvira, Emilie Chouzenoux, Ömer Deniz Akyildiz +1

Importance sampling (IS) is a powerful Monte Carlo methodology for the approximation of intractable integrals, very often involving a target probability density function. The perfo…

Efficient Bayes Inference in Neural Networks through Adaptive Importance Sampling

Yunshi Huang, Emilie Chouzenoux, Victor Elvira +1

Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) have received an increased interest in the last years. In BNNs, a complete posterior distribution of the unknown weight and bias parameters of the n…

Hamiltonian Adaptive Importance Sampling

Ali Mousavi, Reza Monsefi, Víctor Elvira

Importance sampling (IS) is a powerful Monte Carlo (MC) methodology for approximating integrals, for instance in the context of Bayesian inference. In IS, the samples are simulated…

Graphical Inference in Linear-Gaussian State-Space Models

Víctor Elvira, Émilie Chouzenoux

State-space models (SSM) are central to describe time-varying complex systems in countless signal processing applications such as remote sensing, networks, biomedicine, and finance…
