Search Results for "neural algorithm"

Beyond its much publicized success in attaining superhuman level at games such as Chess and Go, DeepMind's AlphaZero algorithm illustrates a more general methodology of combining learning and search to explore large combinatorial spaces effectively. We believe that this methodology can have exciting applications in many different research areas. Because AlphaZero is resource-hungry, successful open-source implementations (such as Leela Zero) are written in low-level languages (such as C++)...

...Gen’s inference library gives users building blocks for writing efficient probabilistic inference algorithms that are tailored to their models, while automating the tricky math and the low-level implementation details. Gen helps users write hybrid algorithms that combine neural networks, variational inference, sequential Monte Carlo samplers, and Markov chain Monte Carlo. Gen features an easy-to-use modeling language for writing down generative models, inference models, variational families, and proposal distributions using ordinary code. But it also lets users migrate parts of their model or inference algorithm to specialized modeling languages for which it can generate especially fast code. ...
