Rao-Blackwellized Stochastic Gradients for Discrete Distributions
Runjing Liu, Jeffrey Regier, Nilesh Tripuraneni +2
We wish to compute the gradient of an expectation over a finite or countably infinite sample space having categories. When is indeed infinite, or finite but ver…
Approximate Inference for Constructing Astronomical Catalogs from Images
Jeffrey Regier, Andrew C. Miller, David Schlegel +3
We present a new, fully generative model for constructing astronomical catalogs from optical telescope image sets. Each pixel intensity is treated as a random variable with paramet…
Cataloging the Visible Universe through Bayesian Inference at Petascale
Jeffrey Regier, Kiran Pamnany, Keno Fischer +9
Astronomical catalogs derived from wide-field imaging surveys are an important tool for understanding the Universe. We construct an astronomical catalog from 55 TB of imaging data…
