Assignment 5: Variational and Sampling Methods Unsupervised Learning
where y us a D-dimensional vector and I is the D×D identity matrix. Assume you have a data set of N i.i.d. observations of y, i.e. Y = {y, . . . ,y}. More details are provided in Appendix A. General Matlab hint: wherever possible, avoid looping over the data points. Many (but not all) of these functions can be written using matrix operations. In Matlab it’s much faster. Warning: Each question d...

متن کاملVAE Learning via Stein Variational Gradient Descent
A new method for learning variational autoencoders (VAEs) is developed, based on Stein variational gradient descent. A key advantage of this approach is that one need not make parametric assumptions about the form of the encoder distribution. Performance is further enhanced by integrating the proposed encoder with importance sampling. Excellent performance is demonstrated across multiple unsupe...

متن کاملLeast Square Variational Bayesian Autoencoder with Regularization
In recent years Variation Autoencoders have become one of the most popular unsupervised learning of complicated distributions. Variational Autoencoder (VAE) provides more efficient reconstructive performance over a traditional autoencoder. Variational auto enocders make better approximaiton than MCMC. The VAE defines a generative process in terms of ancestral sampling through a cascade of hidde...
