An Energy-Based Perspective on Machine Learning
[Sztuczna inteligencja] Autorzy: Bo Dai, Yilun Du
Energy-based models (EBMs) define a distribution through a scalar energy, $p_θ(x)\propto\exp(-E_θ(x))$, and are usually presented as one model family among many. This tutorial has a broader goal: beyond introducing EBMs, it uses them as a single lens that connects the different aspects of machine learning. Any EBM is specified by three choices, the energy, which determines what the model represents; the inference procedure, which samples from or optimizes the energy; and the learning method, which fits the energy to data. We first develop these components, including sampling, variational inference, and learning by maximum likelihood, noise contrastive estimation, pseudolikelihood, score matching, and adversarial training, and show that the learning methods share one contrastive structure. We then show that discriminative models, generative models such as GANs, normalizing flows, diffusi…
