Black Box Variational Inference with a Deterministic Objective: Faster, More Accurate, and Even More Black Box

1 code implementation11 Apr 2023 Ryan Giordano, Martin Ingram, Tamara Broderick

We show on a variety of real-world problems that DADVI reliably finds good solutions with default settings (unlike ADVI) and, together with LR covariances, is typically faster and more accurate than standard ADVI.

Scaling multi-species occupancy models to large citizen science datasets

no code implementations17 Jun 2022 Martin Ingram, Damjan Vukcevic, Nick Golding

We evaluate the predictions on a spatially separated test set of 59, 338 records, comparing two different inference methods -- Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and variational inference (VI) -- to occupancy models fitted to each species separately using maximum likelihood.
