This document discusses the connections between generative adversarial networks (GANs) and energy-based models (EBMs). It shows that GAN training can be interpreted as approximating maximum likelihood training of an EBM by replacing the intractable data distribution with a generator distribution. Specifically:
1. GANs train a discriminator to estimate the energy function of an EBM, with the generator minimizing that energy of its samples.
2. EBM training can be seen as alternatively updating the generator and sampling from it, in a manner similar to contrastive divergence for EBMs.
3. This perspective unifies GANs and EBMs, and suggests ways to combine their training procedures to leverage their respective advantages

NeRF-VAE is a 3D scene generative model that combines Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) and Generative Query Networks (GQN) with a variational autoencoder (VAE). It uses a NeRF decoder to generate novel views conditioned on a latent code. An encoder extracts latent codes from input views. During training, it maximizes the evidence lower bound to learn the latent space of scenes and allow for novel view synthesis. NeRF-VAE aims to generate photorealistic novel views of scenes by leveraging NeRF's view synthesis abilities within a generative model framework.

2. An equation for the evidence lower bound is derived, which decomposes the log likelihood of data into the Kullback-Leibler divergence between an approximate and true posterior plus an expected log likelihood term.
3. Variational autoencoders are discussed, where the approximate posterior is parameterized by a neural network and optimized to maximize the evidence lower bound. Latent variables are modeled as Gaussian distributions.
This document discusses processing large datasets with Python and Hadoop. It begins with an example of finding the highest temperature from a climate dataset using a map-reduce approach.

It poses a question about how to implement breadth-first search as a map-reduce algorithm and ends with an example of using MongoDB's map-reduce functionality.
【DL輪読会】SUMO: Unbiased Estimation of Log Marginal Probability for Latent Varia...Deep Learning JP
The document proposes a method called SUMO (Stochastically Unbiased Marginalization Objective) for estimating log marginal probabilities in latent variable models. SUMO uses a Russian roulette estimator to obtain an unbiased estimate of the log marginal likelihood. This allows SUMO to provide an objective function for variational inference that converges to the log marginal likelihood as more samples are taken, avoiding the bias issues of methods like VAEs and IWAE. The paper outlines SUMO, compares it to existing methods, and demonstrates its effectiveness on density estimation tasks.
This document discusses using variational autoencoders for semi-supervised learning. It presents the general variational formula for calculating the log likelihood of data, and derives lower bound formulas for semi-supervised models. Specifically, it shows lower bound formulas for predicting a semi-supervised value z given inputs x and y, and for predicting both z and a supervised value y given only x as input. The key ideas are using an encoder-decoder model with latent variables z and y, and optimizing an objective function that combines supervised and unsupervised loss terms.
This document summarizes a research paper on semi-supervised learning with deep generative models. It presents the key formulas and derivations used in variational autoencoders (VAEs) and their extension to semi-supervised models. The proposed semi-supervised model has two lower bounds - one for labeled data that maximizes the likelihood of inputs given labels, and one for unlabeled data that maximizes the likelihood based on inferred labels. Experimental results show the model achieves better classification accuracy compared to supervised models as the number of labeled samples increases.
This document discusses the relationship between control as inference, reinforcement learning, and active inference. It provides an overview of key concepts such as Markov decision processes (MDPs), partially observable MDPs (POMDPs), optimality variables, the evidence lower bound (ELBO), variational inference, and the free energy principle as applied to active inference. Control as inference frames reinforcement learning as probabilistic inference by defining a generative process and performing variational inference to find an optimal policy. Active inference uses the free energy principle and minimizes expected free energy to select actions that resolve uncertainty.

The document provides technical details of the generative processes, variational approximations, and optimization of these semi-supervised deep generative models.
This document discusses the connection between generative adversarial networks (GANs) and inverse reinforcement learning (IRL). It shows that the objectives of GAN discriminators and IRL cost functions are equivalent, and GAN generators are equivalent to the IRL sampler objective plus a constant term. The derivative of the IRL cost function with respect to the cost parameters is also equivalent to the derivative of the GAN discriminator objective. Therefore, GANs can be used to perform IRL by training the discriminator to estimate the cost function and the generator to produce sample trajectories.

1) Initializing FFT descriptors and allocating data across processors
2) Mapping G-vectors to processors by iterating through grid points and checking if the vector satisfies cutoff criteria
3) Counting the number of G-vectors assigned to each processor
4) Sorting and distributing the G-vectors to optimize load balancing across processors
This document summarizes key concepts from Day 4 of an R bootcamp, including:

Context-Aware Recommender System Based on Boolean Matrix FactorisationDmitrii Ignatov
In this work we propose and study an approach for collaborative filtering, which is based on Boolean matrix factorisation and exploits additional (context) information about users and items. To avoid similarity loss in case of Boolean representation we use an adjusted type of projection of a target user to the obtained factor space.
We have compared the proposed method with SVD-based approach on the MovieLens dataset. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed method has better MAE and Precision and comparable Recall and F-measure. We also report an increase of quality in the context information presence.
This document discusses divide and conquer algorithms for multiplying integers and finding the kth smallest element. It describes how to multiply integers by dividing them into left and right halves, combining results. Finding the kth smallest element involves choosing a pivot, partitioning around it, and recursively searching halves until the kth element is found. Both algorithms take O(n log n) time by dividing the problem size by a constant factor at each step.
The document contains code for a VBA macro that copies rows of data from sheet1 to sheet2. It defines variables to store values from 10 columns in sheet1. It then uses nested For loops to iterate through rows 1 to 10000 in sheet1, copy the values from each row to sheet2, and increment a reference line each time to paste to the next row.
This document provides an introduction to generative adversarial networks (GANs). It includes examples of GAN applications, an overview of how GANs work with generators and discriminators, the loss functions used in GAN training, and the global optimality conditions for GAN training. It explains that the global minimum is achieved when the generated distribution pz matches the real data distribution pdata, resulting in a value of -log4 for the loss function.
The document discusses the Tower of Hanoi problem. It contains the following key points:
1) The Tower of Hanoi problem involves moving disks of different sizes between three towers, where the rules are that larger disks cannot be placed on top of smaller disks and only one disk can be moved at a time.
2) An algorithm for solving the Tower of Hanoi problem recursively moves all but one disk from the starting tower to an auxiliary tower, then moves the remaining disk to the destination tower, and finally moves the disks from the auxiliary tower to the destination tower.
3) The number of moves required to solve a Tower of Hanoi problem increases exponentially based on the number of disks,
The document describes the Tower of Hanoi puzzle. It involves three pegs with disks of decreasing diameters stacked on one peg. The objective is to move the entire stack to another peg following two rules: only the top disk can be moved at a time, and a larger disk can never be placed on top of a smaller disk. The algorithm works recursively by breaking the problem down into moving all disks except the largest, moving the largest disk, and then moving the remaining disks.
This document discusses k*-nearest neighbors (k*-NN), an improvement on the standard k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) algorithm. k*-NN aims to find an optimal value of k for k-NN by minimizing a loss function that trades off bias and variance. The k*-NN algorithm is presented, which calculates the optimal k and sample weights. Experimental results on several datasets show that k*-NN often outperforms standard k-NN and Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression, finding a better value of k through cross-validation.
The document contains examples of algebraic expressions that can be factorized. Specifically, it lists 14 different expressions involving variables like x, y, z, a, b, c, m, n, and coefficients. The expressions include differences of terms, sums of terms, products of terms with common factors that can be pulled out, and expressions within parentheses that can be distributed and combined.
1. The document discusses energy-based models (EBMs) and how they can be applied to classifiers. It introduces noise contrastive estimation and flow contrastive estimation as methods to train EBMs.

3. Another paper argues that classifiers can be viewed as joint energy-based models over inputs and outputs, and should be treated as such. It introduces a method to train classifiers as EBMs using contrastive divergence.
The document describes the Tower of Hanoi puzzle, which involves moving disks of different sizes between three pegs according to rules of only moving one disk at a time and never placing a larger disk on top of a smaller one.

The number of minimum moves needed to solve the puzzle for n disks is 2^n - 1. For example, 4 disks requires 15 moves.
