Abstract |
Deep generative models parametrize very flexible families of distributions able to fit complicated datasets
of images or text. These models provide independent samples from complex high-distributions at
negligible costs. On the other hand, sampling exactly a target distribution, such as the Boltzmann
distribution of a physical system, is typically challenging: either because of dimensionality, multi-modality,
ill-conditioning or a combination of the previous. In this talk, I will discuss opportunities and challenges in
enhancing traditional Monte Carlo methods with learning.
