Abstract
A sampling system includes: an energy-based model (EBM) configured to generate non-negative scores of an input having discrete classifications, respectively; and a sampling module configured to: generate a sample from a probability distribution of the EBM using a proposal distribution; set a probability of acceptance of the sample based on a minimum of (a) 1 and (b) an acceptance value determined based on the sample, a score of the sample from the EBM, the proposal distribution, and an upper boundary value; determine a distribution value between 0 and 1 using a uniform distribution; and discard the sample when the distribution value is greater than the probability of acceptance of the sample.
