Structured Semi-Implicit Variational Inference
In this work we construct flexible joint distributions from low-dimensional conditional semi-implicit distributions. Explicitly defining the structure of the approximation allows to make the variational lower bound tighter, resulting in more accurate inference.

Doubly Semi-Implicit Variational Inference
We extend the existing framework of semi-implicit variational inference (SIVI) and introduce doubly semi-implicit variational inference (DSIVI), a way to perform variational inference and learning when both the approxima…

Semi-implicit variational inference (SIVI) greatly enriches the expressiveness of variational families by considering implicit variational distributions defined in a hierarchical manner. However, due to the intractable d…

Semi-implicit variational inference (SIVI) is a powerful framework for approximating complex posterior distributions, but training with the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence can be challenging due to high variance and bia…

Efficient modeling of relational data arising in physical, social, and information sciences is challenging due to complicated dependencies within the data. In this work, we build off of semi-implicit graph variational au…
