normflows: A PyTorch Package for Normalizing Flows

نویسندگان

چکیده

Normalizing flows model probability distributions through an expressive tractable density. They transform a simple base distribution, such as Gaussian, sequence of invertible functions, which are referred to layers. These layers typically use neural networks become very expressive. Flows ubiquitous in machine learning and have been applied image generation, text modeling, variational inference, approximating Boltzmann distributions, many other problems. Here, we present normflows, Python package for normalizing flows. It allows build flow models from suite layers, networks. The is implemented the popular deep framework PyTorch, simplifies integration larger or pipelines. supports most common architectures, Real NVP, Glow, Masked Autoregressive Flows, Neural Spline Residual more. can be easily installed via pip code publicly available on GitHub.

Convolutional Normalizing Flows

Bayesian posterior inference is prevalent in various machine learning problems. Variational inference provides one way to approximate the posterior distribution, however its expressive power is limited and so is the accuracy of resulting approximation. Recently, there has a trend of using neural networks to approximate the variational posterior distribution due to the flexibility of neural netw...

Sylvester Normalizing Flows for Variational Inference

Variational inference relies on flexible approximate posterior distributions. Normalizing flows provide a general recipe to construct flexible variational posteriors. We introduce Sylvester normalizing flows, which can be seen as a generalization of planar flows. Sylvester normalizing flows remove the well-known single-unit bottleneck from planar flows, making a single transformation much more ...

Variational Inference with Normalizing Flows

The choice of approximate posterior distribution is one of the core problems in variational inference. Most applications of variational inference employ simple families of posterior approximations in order to allow for efficient inference, focusing on mean-field or other simple structured approximations. This restriction has a significant impact on the quality of inferences made using variation...

Normalizing Flows on Riemannian Manifolds

We consider the problem of density estimation on Riemannian manifolds. Density estimation on manifolds has many applications in fluid-mechanics, optics and plasma physics and it appears often when dealing with angular variables (such as used in protein folding, robot limbs, gene-expression) and in general directional statistics. In spite of the multitude of algorithms available for density esti...
