Markov Chain Score Ascent: A Unifying Framework of Variational Inference with Markovian Gradients

1 code implementation13 Jun 2022 Kyurae Kim, Jisu Oh, Jacob R. Gardner, Adji Bousso Dieng, HongSeok Kim

Minimizing the inclusive Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence with stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is challenging since its gradient is defined as an integral over the posterior.
