Latent Variable Energy Based Models

Alfredo Canziani via YouTube

Overview

Dive into the intricacies of Latent Variable Energy Based Models (LV-EBMs) and their training in this comprehensive lecture by Alfredo Canziani. Explore key concepts such as Zero Temperature Limit (ZTL) free energy, warmer free energy, and Infinite Temperature Limit. Examine practical examples of free energy calculations and gain insights into nomenclature and PyTorch implementation. Learn about loss functionals, compare ZTL and warmer temperature training approaches, and understand the conditional case. Visualize untrained and trained model manifolds, study energy functions, and discover the process of learning the Decoder. Conclude with valuable insights on choosing the appropriate latent size for your models.
