Thresholding Bandit Problem with Both Duels and Pulls
Yichong Xu, Xi Chen, Aarti Singh +1
The Thresholding Bandit Problem (TBP) aims to find the set of arms with mean rewards greater than a given threshold. We consider a new setting of TBP, where in addition to pulling…
Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Optimization and Variation Regularization
Rui Gao, Xi Chen, Anton J. Kleywegt
Wasserstein distributionally robust optimization (DRO) has recently achieved empirical success for various applications in operations research and machine learning, owing partly to…
Improving Variational Inference with Inverse Autoregressive Flow
Diederik P. Kingma, Tim Salimans, Rafal Jozefowicz +3
The framework of normalizing flows provides a general strategy for flexible variational inference of posteriors over latent variables. We propose a new type of normalizing flow, in…
