The ELBO of Variational Autoencoders Converges to a Sum of Three Entropies
Simon Damm, Dennis Forster, Dmytro Velychko +3
The central objective function of a variational autoencoder (VAE) is its variational lower bound (the ELBO). Here we show that for standard (i.e., Gaussian) VAEs the ELBO converges…

Black-box density function estimation using recursive partitioning
Erik Bodin, Zhenwen Dai, Neill D. F. Campbell +1
We present a novel approach to Bayesian inference and general Bayesian computation that is defined through a sequential decision loop. Our method defines a recursive partitioning o…
