Interpolating between sampling and variational inference with infinite stochastic mixtures

UAI 2022poster

Sampling and Variational Inference (VI) are two large families of methods for approximate inference that have complementary strengths. Sampling methods excel at approximating arbitrary probability distributions, but can be inefficient. VI methods are efficient, but may misrepresent the true distribu…
