2018年3月7日 · I want to add another interesting paper relating to this question, where the authors propose a cyclical annealing scheme for the KLD term to improve the training of a …

And in a variational autoencoder, each feature is actually a sliding scale between two distinct versions of a feature, e.g. male/female for faces, or wide/thin brushstroke for MNIST digits. …

2015年10月17日 · I am looking at the mean field approximation as used in Variational Bayes inference and I looked at this section on wikipedia with the factorised approximation as …

2019年2月10日 · To elaborate on and give context to previous answers, we expand on the use of mean-field variational assumptions in machine learning. The question can be decomposed …
