Quantized Variational Inference

We present Quantized Variational Inference, a new algorithm for Evidence Lower Bound minimization. We show how Optimal Voronoi Tesselation produces variance free gradients for Evidence Lower Bound (ELBO) optimization at the cost of introducing…

Endotypes identified by cluster analysis in asthmatics and non-Asthmatics and their clinical characteristics at follow-up: The case-control EGEA study

Background Identifying relevant asthma endotypes may be the first step towards improving asthma management. We aimed identifying respiratory endotypes in adults using a cluster analysis and to compare their clinical characteristics at follow-up…

A Multidimensional Data Acquisition as a Preliminary Step to the Secondary Prevention of the Loss of Autonomy for Patients with Traumatic Injury and Stroke: An AMISIA Pilot Study

Background: The aim of our study was to conduct an ad hoc data collection in healthy adults with the intention of extracting individual profiles to study the ability to effectively monitor one's health by extracting relevant indicators. As “each…

Statistical and Topological Properties of Sliced Probability Divergences

The idea of slicing divergences has been proven to be successful when comparing two probability measures in various machine learning applications including generative modeling, and consists in computing the expected value of a `base divergence'…

GEOMETRIC ERGODICITY OF THE BOUNCY PARTICLE SAMPLER

The Bouncy Particle Sampler (BPS) is a Monte Carlo Markov Chain algorithm to sample from a target density known up to a multiplicative constant. This method is based on a kinetic piecewise deterministic Markov process for which the target measure is…

A FUNCTIONAL EQUATION WITH POLYNOMIAL SOLUTIONS AND APPLICATION TO NEURAL NETWORKS

We construct and discuss a functional equation with contraction property. The solutions are real univariate polynomials. The series solving the natural fixed point iterations have immediate interpretation in terms of Neural Networks with recursive…

SPAWN: An Iterative, Potentials-Based, Dynamic Scheduling and Partitioning Tool

Many applications of physics modeling use regular meshes on whichcomputations of highly variable cost over time can occur. Distributing the un-derlying cells over manycore architectures is a critical load balancing step thatshould be performed the…
