The reparameterization trick (aka "reparameterization gradient estimator") is a technique used in statistical machine learning, particularly in variational inference, variational autoencoders, and stochastic optimization.
Variational Bayesian methods are a family of techniques for approximating intractable integrals arising in Bayesian inference and machine learning.They are typically used in complex statistical models consisting of observed variables (usually termed "data") as well as unknown parameters and latent variables, with various sorts of relationships among the three types of random variables, as ...
Stan is a probabilistic programming language for statistical inference written in C++ ArviZ a Python library for exploratory analysis of Bayesian models Bambi is a high-level Bayesian model-building interface based on PyMC
Empirical Bayes methods can be seen as an approximation to a fully Bayesian treatment of a hierarchical Bayes model.. In, for example, a two-stage hierarchical Bayes model, observed data = {,, …,} are assumed to be generated from an unobserved set of parameters = {,, …,} according to a probability distribution ().
Statistical inference makes propositions about a population, using data drawn from the population with some form of sampling.Given a hypothesis about a population, for which we wish to draw inferences, statistical inference consists of (first) selecting a statistical model of the process that generates the data and (second) deducing propositions from the model.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Convex analysis and variational analysis | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Convex analysis and variational analysis | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
