arXiv:2604. 07635v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This research considers a scalable inference for spatial data modeled through Gaussian intrinsic conditional autoregressive (ICAR) structures.
arXiv:2411. 00214v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Otto's Wasserstein gradient flow of the inclusive (forward) Kullback--Leibler (KL) divergence offers a principled framework for analyzing statistical inference algorithms, yet algorithms targeting the exclusive (reverse) KL divergence are rarely studied with such tools.
arXiv:2607. 03871v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Minimum maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) estimation has emerged as a robust and likelihood-free alternative to maximum likelihood estimation for parameter estimation.
arXiv:2603. 17415v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Image registration is an ill-posed dense vision task, where multiple solutions achieve similar loss values, motivating probabilistic inference.
arXiv:2606. 15458v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Variational inference (VI) is a core engine of modern AI, enabling scalable approximate Bayesian learning and uncertainty-aware training of large probabilistic and generative models.
arXiv:2607. 22262v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modeling shared and subject-specific structure in multisubject spatiotemporal data remains challenging, particularly in neuroimaging, where both spatial and temporal patterns exhibit rich variability across subjects.
arXiv:2606. 16257v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sampling from high-dimensional, non-log-concave distributions with unnormalized densities is a fundamental challenge in machine learning, particularly when the exact gradient of the potential is unavailable and must be approximated via stochastic gradients that exhibit high variance under a fixed budget of gradient computations per iteration.
arXiv:2606. 25882v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: DGPs are probabilistic models with remarkable prediction performance that concatenate GPs across several layers.
arXiv:2606. 05381v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose an extended family of structured spatial priors that incorporates the total variation (TV) function with $\ell_p$ norms.
arXiv:2406. 12659v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a scalable variational Bayes method for statistical inference for a single or pre-specified low-dimensional subset of the coordinates of a high-dimensional parameter in sparse linear regression.
arXiv:2602. 04272v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Importance-Weighted Evidence Lower Bound (IW-ELBO) has emerged as an effective objective for variational inference (VI), tightening the standard ELBO and mitigating the mode-seeking behaviour.
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated substantial promise in spatial understanding. Existing works typically incorporate prior knowledge extracted from a pre-trained foundation model to further enhance the spatial awareness of MLLMs.
arXiv:2605. 25811v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study counterfactual distribution learning for high-dimensional outcomes whose laws may concentrate near lower-dimensional structure.
