Matrices over the ring of formal power series are considered. Normal forms with respect to various sub-groups of the two-sided transformations are constructed. The construction is based on the special property of the action: it induces a…

Image recognition/classification is a widely studied problem, but its reverse problem, image generation, has drawn much less attention until recently. But the vast majority of current methods for image generation require training/retraining…

We formulate the inverse problem in a Bayesian framework and aim to train a generative model that allows us to simulate (i.e., sample from the likelihood) and do inference (i.e., sample from the posterior). We review the use of triangular…
