The quality of generative models (such as Generative adversarial networks and Variational Auto-Encoders) depends heavily on the choice of a good probability distance. However some popular metrics like the Wasserstein or the Sliced…

The framework of variational autoencoders allows us to efficiently learn deep latent-variable models, such that the model's marginal distribution over observed variables fits the data. Often, we're interested in going a step further, and…

We propose a quantum implicit neural representation (QINR)-based autoencoder (AE) and variational autoencoder (VAE) for image reconstruction and generation tasks. Our purpose is to demonstrate that the QINR in VAEs and AEs can transform…

Variational autoencoders (VAEs) provide an effective and simple method for modeling complex distributions. However, training VAEs often requires considerable hyperparameter tuning to determine the optimal amount of information retained by…

Variational auto-encoders (VAEs) provide an attractive solution to image generation problem. However, they tend to produce blurred and over-smoothed images due to their dependence on pixel-wise reconstruction loss. This paper introduces a…

In this paper, we investigate the design of distributed detection networks in the presence of an eavesdropper (Eve). We consider the problem of designing binary quantizers at the sensors that maximize the Kullback-Leibler (KL) Divergence at…

The electrocardiogram (ECG) is an inexpensive and widely available tool for cardiac assessment. Despite its standardized format and small file size, the high complexity and inter-individual variability of ECG signals (typically a…

Autoencoder (AE) is a neural network (NN) architecture that is trained to reconstruct an input at its output. By measuring the reconstruction errors of new input samples, AE can detect anomalous samples deviated from the trained data…

The Gaussianity assumption has been consistently criticized as a main limitation of the Variational Autoencoder (VAE) despite its efficiency in computational modeling. In this paper, we propose a new approach that expands the model capacity…

Anomaly detection plays a pivotal role in numerous real-world scenarios, such as industrial automation and manufacturing intelligence. Recently, variational inference-based anomaly analysis has attracted researchers' and developers'…

We propose a new class of robust and Fisher-consistent estimators for mixture models. These estimators can be used to construct robust model-based clustering procedures. We study in detail the case of multivariate normal mixtures and…

Gravitational-wave astronomers often wish to characterize the expected parameter-estimation accuracy of future observations. The Fisher matrix provides a lower bound on the spread of the maximum-likelihood estimator across noise…

Being one of the most popular generative framework, variational autoencoders(VAE) are known to suffer from a phenomenon termed posterior collapse, i.e. the latent variational distributions collapse to the prior, especially when a strong…

Machine learning models provide statistically impressive results which might be individually unreliable. To provide reliability, we propose an Epistemic Classifier (EC) that can provide justification of its belief using support from the…

$\alpha$-posteriors and their variational approximations distort standard posterior inference by downweighting the likelihood and introducing variational approximation errors. We show that such distortions, if tuned appropriately, reduce…

The variational autoencoder (VAE) typically employs a standard normal prior as a regularizer for the probabilistic latent encoder. However, the Gaussian tail often decays too quickly to effectively accommodate the encoded points, failing to…

Quantifying the uncertainty of quantities of interest (QoIs) from physical systems is a primary objective in model validation. However, achieving this goal entails balancing the need for computational efficiency with the requirement for…

Variational inference with {\alpha}-divergences has been widely used in modern probabilistic machine learning. Compared to Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence, a major advantage of using {\alpha}-divergences (with positive {\alpha} values) is…

We consider the problem of information compression from high dimensional data. Where many studies consider the problem of compression by non-invertible transformations, we emphasize the importance of invertible compression. We introduce new…

An important property for deep neural networks is the ability to perform robust out-of-distribution detection on previously unseen data. This property is essential for safety purposes when deploying models for real world applications.…
