This is achieved via Bayesian Design of Experiments, which helps to efficiently navigate parameter search spaces. It balances exploitation of parameter space regions known to lead to good outcomes and ...

Abstract: Efficient learning and model compression algorithm for deep neural network (DNN) is a key workhorse behind the rise of deep learning (DL). In this work, we propose a message passing-based ...

Instead of maximum-likelihood or MAP, Bayesian inference encourages the use of predictive densities and evidence scores. This is illustrated in the context of the multinomial distribution, where ...

This note derives the posterior, the evidence, and the predictive density for a uniform distribution, given a conjugate parameter prior. These provide various Bayesian answers to the “taxicab” problem ...
