• Title: Probabilistic learning inference of boundary value problem with uncertainties based on Kullback-Leibler divergence under implicit constraints
• Authors: Christian Soize
• Abstract summary: We present a general methodology of a probabilistic learning inference that allows for estimating a posterior probability model for a boundary value problem from a prior probability model. A statistical surrogate model of the implicit mapping, which represents the constraints, is introduced. In a second part, an application is presented to illustrate the proposed theory and is also, as such, a contribution to the three-dimensional homogenization of heterogeneous linear elastic media.

• Abstract: In a first part, we present a mathematical analysis of a general methodology of a probabilistic learning inference that allows for estimating a posterior probability model for a stochastic boundary value problem from a prior probability model. The given targets are statistical moments for which the underlying realizations are not available. Under these conditions, the Kullback-Leibler divergence minimum principle is used for estimating the posterior probability measure. A statistical surrogate model of the implicit mapping, which represents the constraints, is introduced. The MCMC generator and the necessary numerical elements are given to facilitate the implementation of the methodology in a parallel computing framework. In a second part, an application is presented to illustrate the proposed theory and is also, as such, a contribution to the three-dimensional stochastic homogenization of heterogeneous linear elastic media in the case of a non-separation of the microscale and macroscale. For the construction of the posterior probability measure by using the probabilistic learning inference, in addition to the constraints defined by given statistical moments of the random effective elasticity tensor, the second-order moment of the random normalized residue of the stochastic partial differential equation has been added as a constraint. This constraint guarantees that the algorithm seeks to bring the statistical moments closer to their targets while preserving a small residue.

  Quantizing images into discrete representations has been a fundamental problem in unified generative modeling. deterministic quantization suffers from severe codebook collapse and misalignment with inference stage while quantization suffers from low codebook utilization and reconstruction objective. This paper presents a regularized vector quantization framework that allows to mitigate perturbed above issues effectively by applying regularization from two perspectives.

  Simulation-based inference enables learning the parameters of a model even when its likelihood cannot be computed in practice. One class of methods uses data simulated with different parameters to infer an amortized estimator for the likelihood-to-evidence ratio. We show that this approach can be formulated in terms of mutual information between model parameters and simulated data.
