Bottleneck Conditional Density Estimation
We propose a neural network framework for high-dimensional conditional density estimation. The Bottleneck Conditional Density Estimator (BCDE) is a variant of the conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE) that employs layer(s) of stochastic variables as the bottleneck between the input x and target y, where both are highdimensional. The key to effectively train BCDEs is the hybrid blending of ...
متن کاملA geometric framework for density estimation and conditional density estimation
We introduce a geometrically intuitive procedure to obtain an estimator for a probability density function in the absence or presence of predictors. The estimation procedure is based on starting with an initial estimate of the density shape and then transforming it via a warping function to obtain the final estimate. The idea is to design the initial estimate to be computationally fast, albeit ...
متن کاملFast Nonparametric Conditional Density Estimation
Conditional density estimation. The idea of conditional density estimation is to construct a density estimate f̂(y|x) for a dependent variable y, conditional on a vector of variables x. This can be seen as a generalization of regression, where instead of estimating the expected value E(y|x) alone, we instead model the full density. This is especially important for multi-modal densities, where th...
متن کاملPartition-Based Conditional Density Estimation
We propose a general partition-based strategy to estimate conditional density with candidate densities that are piecewise constant with respect to the covariate. Capitalizing on a general penalized maximum likelihood model selection result, we prove, on two specific examples, that the penalty of each model can be chosen roughly proportional to its dimension. We first study a classical strategy ...
متن کاملLeast-Squares Conditional Density Estimation
Estimating the conditional mean of an input-output relation is the goal of regression. However, regression analysis is not sufficiently informative if the conditional distribution has multi-modality, is highly asymmetric, or contains heteroscedastic noise. In such scenarios, estimating the conditional distribution itself would be more useful. In this paper, we propose a novel method of conditio...
