Abstract:
Probabilistic models deal with uncertainty in data-driven decision-making and modeling in a principled manner. However, as models and datasets grow in complexity, efficient and exact inference (querying the model) becomes a challenge, hindering their feasibility in high-stakes domains like healthcare. This tutorial aims to introduce participants to Deep and Tractable Probabilistic Generative Models, a special class of generative models that balance expressiveness and tractability. Participants will learn about their theoretical foundations, practical implementations, and real-world applications.
