Generalized Data Thinning Using Sufficient Statistics

no code implementations22 Mar 2023 Ameer Dharamshi, Anna Neufeld, Keshav Motwani, Lucy L. Gao, Daniela Witten, Jacob Bien

A recent paper showed that for some well-known natural exponential families, $X$ can be "thinned" into independent random variables $X^{(1)}, \ldots, X^{(K)}$, such that $X = \sum_{k=1}^K X^{(k)}$.

Data thinning for convolution-closed distributions

1 code implementation18 Jan 2023 Anna Neufeld, Ameer Dharamshi, Lucy L. Gao, Daniela Witten

We propose data thinning, an approach for splitting an observation into two or more independent parts that sum to the original observation, and that follow the same distribution as the original observation, up to a (known) scaling of a parameter.
