Learning medical triage from clinicians using Deep Q-Learning

Albert Buchard, Baptiste Bouvier, Giulia Prando +10

Medical Triage is of paramount importance to healthcare systems, allowing for the correct orientation of patients and allocation of the necessary resources to treat them adequately…

Universal Marginaliser for Deep Amortised Inference for Probabilistic Programs

Robert Walecki, Kostis Gourgoulias, Adam Baker +7

Probabilistic programming languages (PPLs) are powerful modelling tools which allow to formalise our knowledge about the world and reason about its inherent uncertainty. Inference…

MultiVerse: Causal Reasoning using Importance Sampling in Probabilistic Programming

Yura Perov, Logan Graham, Kostis Gourgoulias +4

We elaborate on using importance sampling for causal reasoning, in particular for counterfactual inference. We show how this can be implemented natively in probabilistic programmin…

Universal Marginalizer for Amortised Inference and Embedding of Generative Models

Robert Walecki, Albert Buchard, Kostis Gourgoulias +6

Probabilistic graphical models are powerful tools which allow us to formalise our knowledge about the world and reason about its inherent uncertainty. There exist a considerable nu…

Inference Over Programs That Make Predictions

Yura Perov

This abstract extends on the previous work (arXiv:1407.2646, arXiv:1606.00075) on program induction using probabilistic programming. It describes possible further steps to extend t…

A comparative study of artificial intelligence and human doctors for the purpose of triage and diagnosis

Salman Razzaki, Adam Baker, Yura Perov +10

Online symptom checkers have significant potential to improve patient care, however their reliability and accuracy remain variable. We hypothesised that an artificial intelligence…

A Universal Marginalizer for Amortized Inference in Generative Models

Laura Douglas, Iliyan Zarov, Konstantinos Gourgoulias +6

We consider the problem of inference in a causal generative model where the set of available observations differs between data instances. We show how combining samples drawn from t…

Spreadsheet Probabilistic Programming

Mike Wu, Yura Perov, Frank Wood +1

Spreadsheet workbook contents are simple programs. Because of this, probabilistic programming techniques can be used to perform Bayesian inversion of spreadsheet computations. What…

Applications of Probabilistic Programming (Master's thesis, 2015)

Yura N Perov

This thesis describes work on two applications of probabilistic programming: the learning of probabilistic program code given specifications, in particular program code of one-dime…

Bachelor's thesis on generative probabilistic programming (in Russian language, June 2014)

Yura N Perov

This Bachelor's thesis, written in Russian, is devoted to a relatively new direction in the field of machine learning and artificial intelligence, namely probabilistic programming.…

Data-driven Sequential Monte Carlo in Probabilistic Programming

Yura N Perov, Tuan Anh Le, Frank Wood

Most of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) algorithms in existing probabilistic programming systems suboptimally use only model priors as proposal dis…

Learning Probabilistic Programs

Yura N. Perov, Frank D. Wood

We develop a technique for generalising from data in which models are samplers represented as program text. We establish encouraging empirical results that suggest that Markov chai…

Venture: a higher-order probabilistic programming platform with programmable inference

Vikash Mansinghka, Daniel Selsam, Yura Perov

We describe Venture, an interactive virtual machine for probabilistic programming that aims to be sufficiently expressive, extensible, and efficient for general-purpose use. Like C…

Approximate Bayesian Image Interpretation using Generative Probabilistic Graphics Programs

Vikash K. Mansinghka, Tejas D. Kulkarni, Yura N. Perov +1

The idea of computer vision as the Bayesian inverse problem to computer graphics has a long history and an appealing elegance, but it has proved difficult to directly implement. In…
