Variational Sequential Monte Carlo
Many recent advances in large scale probabilistic inference rely on variational methods. The success of variational approaches depends on (i) formulating a flexible parametric family of distributions, and (ii) optimizing the parameters to find the member of this family that most closely approximates the exact posterior. In this paper we present a new approximating family of distributions, the v...
متن کاملVariational Consensus Monte Carlo
Practitioners of Bayesian statistics have long depended on Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to obtain samples from intractable posterior distributions. Unfortunately, MCMC algorithms are typically serial, and do not scale to the large datasets typical of modern machine learning. The recently proposed consensus Monte Carlo algorithm removes this limitation by partitioning the data and drawing sam...
متن کاملDelayed rejection variational Monte Carlo.
An acceleration algorithm to address the problem of multiple time scales in variational Monte Carlo simulations is presented. After a first attempted move has been rejected, the delayed rejection algorithm attempts a second move with a smaller time step, so that even moves of the core electrons can be accepted. Results on Be and Ne atoms as test cases are presented. Correlation time and both av...
متن کاملVariational Monte Carlo Studies of t-J-type Models
We give a brief review of recent developments by the variational Monte Carlo method, in addition to some new results. We discuss t-J-type models: the ordinary t-J model in one and two dimensions, and the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model with the long-range coupling of inverse square.
متن کاملVariational Inference for Monte Carlo Objectives
Recent progress in deep latent variable models has largely been driven by the development of flexible and scalable variational inference methods. Variational training of this type involves maximizing a lower bound on the log-likelihood, using samples from the variational posterior to compute the required gradients. Recently, Burda et al. (2015) have derived a tighter lower bound using a multi-s...
