The Variational InfoMax AutoEncoder
The Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) learns simultaneously an inference and a generative model, but only one of these models can be learned at optimum, this behaviour is associated to the ELBO learning objective, that is optimised by a non-informative generator. In order to solve such an issue, we provide a learning objective, learning a maximal informative generator while maintaining bounded the network capacity: the Variational InfoMax (VIM). The contribution of the VIM derivation is twofold: an objective learning both an optimal inference and generative model and the explicit definition of the network capacity, an estimation of the network robustness.

Learning Representations by Maximizing Mutual Information in Variational Autoencoders
Variational autoencoders (VAEs) have ushered in a new era of unsupervised learning methods for complex distributions. Although these techniques are elegant in their approach, they are typically not useful for representat…

We present a variation of the Autoencoder (AE) that explicitly maximizes the mutual information between the input data and the hidden representation. The proposed model, the InfoMax Autoencoder (IMAE), by construction is…

Bayesian Inference and Information Bottleneck are the two most popular objectives for neural networks, but they can be optimised only via a variational lower bound: the Variational Information Bottleneck (VIB). In this m…
