Automatic Posterior Transformation for Likelihood-Free Inference

ICML 2019oral

How can one perform Bayesian inference on stochastic simulators with intractable likelihoods? A recent approach is to learn the posterior from adaptively proposed simulations using neural network-based conditional density estimators. However, existing methods are limited to a narrow range of proposa…

Extracting low-dimensional dynamics from multiple large-scale neural population recordings by learning to predict correlations

NeurIPS 2017poster

A powerful approach for understanding neural population dynamics is to extract low-dimensional trajectories from population recordings using dimensionality reduction methods. Current approaches for dimensionality reduction on neural data are limited to single population recordings, and can not ident…

Flexible statistical inference for mechanistic models of neural dynamics

NeurIPS 2017poster

Mechanistic models of single-neuron dynamics have been extensively studied in computational neuroscience. However, identifying which models can quantitatively reproduce empirically measured data has been challenging. We propose to overcome this limitation by using likelihood-free inference approache…
