...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. ...

...It likely includes definitions of random variables, PMFs and PDFs, expectations, variance, common distributions (e.g. binomial, normal, Poisson, exponential), conditional probability, Bayes’ theorem, moment generating functions, and perhaps important inequalities (Markov, Chebyshev, Chernoff). The cheat sheet is intended as a quick reference for students, data scientists, statisticians, or anyone needing to recall core probability formulas without diving into textbooks. It may include visual diagrams (e.g. distributions’ shapes), tips or mnemonic notes, and examples of application (e.g. computing probabilities or expectations). ...
