Contrastive Divergence in Gaussian Diffusions
This letter presents an analysis of the contrastive divergence (CD) learning algorithm when applied to continuous-time linear stochastic neural networks. For this case, powerful techniques exist that allow a detailed analysis of the behavior of CD. The analysis shows that CD converges to maximum likelihood solutions only when the network structure is such that it can match the first moments of ...

متن کاملLarge deviations for Gaussian diffusions with delay
Dynamical systems driven by nonlinear delay SDEs with small noise can exhibit important rare events on long timescales. When there is no delay, classical large deviations theory quantifies rare events such as escapes from nominally stable fixed points. Near such fixed points one can approximate nonlinear delay SDEs by linear delay SDEs. Here, we develop a fully explicit large deviations framewo...
متن کاملAccelerating ABC methods using Gaussian processes
Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) methods are used to approximate posterior distributions using simulation rather than likelihood calculations. We introduce Gaussian process (GP) accelerated ABC, which we show can significantly reduce the number of simulations required. As computational resource is usually the main determinant of accuracy in ABC, GP-accelerated methods can thus enable more...
متن کاملGaussian Approximations of Small Noise Diffusions in Kullback-leibler Divergence
Abstract. We study Gaussian approximations to the distribution of a diffusion. The approximations are easy to compute: they are defined by two simple ordinary differential equations for the mean and the covariance. Time correlations can also be computed via solution of a linear stochastic differential equation. We show, using the Kullback-Leibler divergence, that the approximations are accurate...
