Variational inference is a scalable technique for approximate Bayesian inference. Deriving variational inference algorithms requires tedious model-specific calculations; this makes it di cult for non-experts to use. We propose an automatic variational inference algorithm, automatic di erentiation variational inference ( ); we implement it in Stan (code available), a probabilistic programming sy...
