Sequential transport maps using SoS density estimation and $α$-divergences

1 code implementation27 Feb 2024 Benjamin Zanger, Tiangang Cui, Martin Schreiber, Olivier Zahm

Transport-based density estimation methods are receiving growing interest because of their ability to efficiently generate samples from the approximated density.

Self-reinforced polynomial approximation methods for concentrated probability densities

no code implementations5 Mar 2023 Tiangang Cui, Sergey Dolgov, Olivier Zahm

We approximate the complicated target density by a composition of self-reinforced KR rearrangements, in which previously constructed KR rearrangements -- based on the same approximation ansatz -- are used to precondition the density approximation problem for building each new KR rearrangement.

Scalable conditional deep inverse Rosenblatt transports using tensor-trains and gradient-based dimension reduction

1 code implementation8 Jun 2021 Tiangang Cui, Sergey Dolgov, Olivier Zahm

We present a novel offline-online method to mitigate the computational burden of the characterization of posterior random variables in statistical learning.

Learning non-Gaussian graphical models via Hessian scores and triangular transport

no code implementations8 Jan 2021 Ricardo Baptista, Youssef Marzouk, Rebecca E. Morrison, Olivier Zahm

Undirected probabilistic graphical models represent the conditional dependencies, or Markov properties, of a collection of random variables.

Minimizing rational functions: a hierarchy of approximations via pushforward measures

no code implementations10 Dec 2020 Jean Bernard Lasserre, Victor Magron, Swann Marx, Olivier Zahm

This paper is concerned with minimizing a sum of rational functions over a compact set of high-dimension.

On the representation and learning of monotone triangular transport maps

1 code implementation22 Sep 2020 Ricardo Baptista, Youssef Marzouk, Olivier Zahm

Transportation of measure provides a versatile approach for modeling complex probability distributions, with applications in density estimation, Bayesian inference, generative modeling, and beyond.

Bayesian Inference Density Estimation

Greedy inference with structure-exploiting lazy maps

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2020 Michael C. Brennan, Daniele Bigoni, Olivier Zahm, Alessio Spantini, Youssef Marzouk

We prove weak convergence of the generated sequence of distributions to the posterior, and we demonstrate the benefits of the framework on challenging inference problems in machine learning and differential equations, using inverse autoregressive flows and polynomial maps as examples of the underlying density estimators.
