Stein Variational Gradient Descent (SVGD) is a particle-based approach to variational inference. SVGD iteratively transports a set of particles to match a target distribution by applying a form of functional gradient descent that minimizes the KL divergence.

Langevin Monte Carlo allows you to draw samples from a probability distribution using its log gradient ∇ log p(x). By performing a sort of gradient ascent with noise you can navigate around the distribution. Langevin MC is heavily related to modern diffusion models.

Flow Matching aims to learn a "flow" that transforms a simple source distribution (e.g. Gaussian) to an arbitrarily complex target distribution. This video shows the evolution of the marginal probability path as a source distribution is transformed to a target distribution.

[VAE] by Hand ✍️ A Variational Auto Encoder (VAE) learns the structure (mean and variance) of hidden features and generates new data from the learned structure. In contrast, GANs only learn to generate new data to fool a discriminator; they may not necessarily know the underlying structure of the data. The International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR) this year announced its first ever "Test of Time Award" to recognizes the VAE paper, published 10 years ago. This exercise demonstrates how to calculate a VAE by hand. [1] Given: ↳ Three training examples X1, X2, X3 ↳ Copy training examples to the bottom ↳ The purpose is to train the network to reconstruct the training examples. ↳ Since each target is a training example itself, we use the Greek word "auto" which means "self." This crucial step is what makes an autoencoder "auto." [2] Encoder: Layer 1 + ReLU ↳ Multiply inputs with weights and biases ↳ Apply ReLU, crossing out negative values (-1 -> 0) [3] Encoder: Mean and Variance ↳ Multiply features with two sets of weights and biases ↳ 🟩 The first set predicts the means (𝜇) of latent distributions ↳ 🟪 The second set predicts the standard deviation (𝜎) of latent distributions [4] Reparameterization Trick: Random Offset ↳ Sample epsilon ε from the normal distribution with mean = 0 and variance = 1. ↳ The purpose is to randomly pick a offset away from the mean. ↳ Multiply the standard deviation values with epsilon values. ↳ The purpose is to scale the offset by the standard deviation. [5] Reparameterization Trick: Mean + Offset ↳ Add the sampled offset to predicted mean ↳ The result are new parameters or features 🟨 as inputs to the Decoder. [6] Decoder: Layer 1 + ReLU ↳ Multiply input features with weights and biases ↳ Apply ReLU, crossing out negative values. Here, -4 is crossed out. [7] Decoder: Layer 2 ↳ Multiply features with weights and biases ↳ The output is Decoder's attempt to reconstruct the input data X from reparameterized distributions described by 𝜇 and 𝜎. [8]-[10] KL Divergence Loss [8] Loss Gradient: Mean 𝜇 ↳ We want 𝜇 to approach 0. ↳ A lot of math called SGVB simplifies the calculation of loss gradients to simply 𝜇 [9,10] Loss Gradient: Stdev 𝜎 ↳ We want 𝜎 to approach 1. ↳ A lot of math simplifies the calculation to 𝜎 - (1/ 𝜎) [11] Reconstruction Loss ↳ We want the reconstructed data Y (dark 🟧) to be the same as the input data X. ↳ Some math involving Mean Square Error simplifies the calculation to Y - X.

An up-close view of TriangleSplatting+. Still hard to believe that there's a gradient leading to this dataset and that ADAM on GPUs is able to find it. Unthinkable just 5 years ago. Thanks Andrea Tagliasacchi 🇨🇦 for putting the PLY on the project page.

The Gaussian Wave Packet ✍️ It is a way to describe a quantum particle, like an electron, that is located in a certain area of space instead of being spread out everywhere. It forms a bell-shaped curve, where the peak of the curve indicates the most likely place to find the particle. This shape is special because it offers the best way to pack a particle; it meets the physical limit set by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, striking the best balance between knowing a particle's position and its momentum. However, because this packet consists of many different overlapping waves, it is naturally unstable for a free particle. Over time, these internal waves travel at slightly different speeds, which causes the bell curve to gradually flatten and widen. This process is known as dispersion. In simpler terms, the longer a quantum particle travels freely, the more unclear its exact location becomes. Video : Jeedecode

I'm trying to figure out where to place a joystick's digital tween when you hold a real one. The current approach is to recreate a plane based on the positions of your intermediate and proximal joints.

This is absolutely genius. Nigel McGuinness *technically* applying a hold while Josh Woods is on the ropes, thus forcing Woods to use one of his rope breaks in a Pure Rules match. Exhibit Z of McGuinness being a wrestling savant.
