Learning Informative Prior with Infinite-Dimensional Continuous Normalizing Flow for Bayesian Inverse Problem
Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →The paper introduces a continuous normalizing flow model for infinite-dimensional Bayesian inference in inverse problems governed by partial differential equations. By defining a neural ordinary differential equation in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, a simple reference measure is transformed into a complex prior that captures prior information. The authors establish a theoretical framework for well-posedness, present training methods for two data settings, and provide sampling algorithms, applying the approach to smooth, scattering, and heat conduction inverse problems with supporting numerical experiments.
