Abstract
A method of Bayesian Variational Inference using Asymmetric Hamiltonian Monte Carlo includes gathering a number of data samples for a Hamiltonian Monte Carlo computation and instantiating an auxiliary distribution on the data samples, the auxiliary distribution being asymmetric. A Hamiltonian Monte Carlo computation is performed with the auxiliary distribution and the plurality of data samples. Upon determining that a metric of the computation outcome does not meet a target metric criterion that is based on a target distribution, the auxiliary distribution is adapted to an output of the computation and the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo computation is re-executed with the adapted auxiliary distribution. A report is generated in response to determining that the target metric is well estimated.
