    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reparameterization_trick

    The reparameterization trick (aka "reparameterization gradient estimator") is a technique used in statistical machine learning, particularly in variational inference, variational autoencoders, and stochastic optimization.

  4. Variational Bayesian methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variational_Bayesian_methods

    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 ...

    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.

    The likelihood estimate needs to be as large as possible; because it's a lower bound, getting closer ⁡ improves the approximation of the log likelihood. By substituting in the factorized version of , (), parameterized over the hidden nodes as above, is simply the negative relative entropy between and plus other terms independent of if is defined as

  7. Bayesian statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_statistics

    Devising a good model for the data is central in Bayesian inference. In most cases, models only approximate the true process, and may not take into account certain factors influencing the data. [2] In Bayesian inference, probabilities can be assigned to model parameters. Parameters can be represented as random variables. Bayesian inference uses ...

  8. Statistical inference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_inference

    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.
