2 In terms of difficulty, there are 3 types of inference problem. Inference which is easily solved with Bayes rule. Inference which is tractable using some dynamic programming technique. e.g. Variable Elimination or J-tree algorithm Today s focus Inference which is proved intractable & should be solved using some Approimate Method. e.g. Approimation with Optimization or Sampling technique.

10 Some Model are Intractable for Eact Inference Eample: A Grid MRF Approimate Inference needed. Generally, we will have clique of size for a * grid, which is indeed intractable.

11 General idea of article-based Monte Carlo Approimation Most of Queries we want can be formed as: E [ f ] K * f... K which is intractable most of time. Assume we can generate i.i.d. samples n from, we can approimate above using: fˆ n f n It s a unbiased estimator whose variance converges to 0 when. E[ fˆ] Var[ fˆ] E[ n f n ] E[ f ] n Var[ f ] Var[ f ] 2 n Intractable when K. K Var. not Related to dimension of. Var0 as

12 Which roblem can use article-based Monte Carlo Approimation? Type of queries:. Likelihood of evidence/assignments on variables 2. Conditional robability of some variables given others. 3. Most robable Assignment for some variables given others. roblem which can be written as following form: E [ f ] K * f... K K

15 So What s the roblem? ote what we can do is: Evaluate the probability/likelihood =,, K = K. What we cannot do is: Summation / Integration in high-dim. space:,, K. What we want to do for approimation is: Draw samples from,, K. How to make better use of samples? How to know we ve sampled enough?

16 How to draw Samples from? Forward Sampling draw from ancestor to descendant in B. Rejection Sampling create samples using Forward Sampling, and reject those inconsistent with evidence. Importance Sampling Sample from proposal dist. Q, but give large weight on sample with high likelihood in. Markov Chain Monte Carlo Define a Transition Dist.

30 How Z and QZ Match? When evidence is close to root, forward sampling is a good QZ, which can generate samples with high likelihood in Z. Evidence QZ close to Z

31 How Z and QZ Match? When evidence is on the leaves, forward sampling is a bad QZ, yields very low likelihood= Z. QZ far from Z So we need very large sample size to get a good picture of Z. Evidence Can we improve with time to draw from a distribution more like the desired Z? MCMC try to draw from a distribution closer and closer to Z. Apply equally well in B & MRF.

33 What is Markov Chain MC? A set of Random Variables: =,. K ossible Configurations of Variables change with Time: t = t,. K t which take transition following: t+ = t = = T There is a stationary distribution π T for Transition T, in which: π T = = π T = * T After transition, still the same distribution over all possible configurations ~ 3 E. The MC Markov Chain above has only variable taking on values {, 2, 3 }, There is a π T s.t T * T T

34 What is MCMC Markov Chain Monte Carlo? Importance Sampling is efficient only if Q matches well. Finding such Q is difficult. Instead, MCMC tries to find a transition dist. T, s.t. tends to transit into states with high, and finally follows stationary dist. π T =. T Setting 0 =any initial value, we samples, 2 M following T, and hope that M follows stationary distribution π T =. If M really does, we got a sample M from. Why will the MC converge to stationary distribution? there is a simple, useful sufficient condition: Regular Markov Chain : for finite state space Any state can reach any other states with prob. > 0. all entries of otential/cd > 0 M follows a unique π T as M large enough.

36 How to define T? ---- Gibbs Sampling Gibbs Sampling is the most popular one used in Graphical Model. In graphical model : It is easy to draw sample from each individual variable given others k -k, while drawing from the joint dist. of, 2,, K is difficult. So, we define T in Gibbs-Sampling as : Taking transition of ~ K in turn with transition distribution : T, T 2 2 2, T K K K Where T k k k = k = k -k Redraw k ~ conditional dist. given all others. In a Graphical Model, k = k -k = k = k Markov Blanket k

38 Gibbs Sampling for MRF Gibbs Sampling : t=2. Initialize all variables randomly. for t = ~M for every variable 2. Draw t from t-. end end Y Y, Y, Y Y 0, Y For the central node: *9*9* 0.76 *9*9* 5*** φ,y

39 Gibbs Sampling for MRF Gibbs Sampling : t=3. Initialize all variables randomly. for t = ~M for every variable 2. Draw t from t-. end end Y Y, Y, Y Y 0, Y For the central node: 9*9*9* *9*9*9 *** φ,y

40 Gibbs Sampling for MRF Gibbs Sampling : t=3. Initialize all variables randomly. for t = ~M for every variable 2. Draw t from t-. end end When M is large enough, M follows stationary dist. : T C Z C Regularity: All entries in the otential are positive. φ,y

41 Why Gibbs Sampling has π T =? To prove is the stationary distribution, we prove is invariant under T k k k : Assume,, K currently follows = k -k * -k,. After T k k k, -K still follows -k because they are unchanged. 2. After T k k k = k = k -k new state indep. from current value k k t still follows k -k. So, after T,, T K K, =,, K still follows. Uniqueness & Convergence guaranteed from Regularity of MC.

42 Gibbs Sampling not Always Work When drawing from individual variable is not possible: We can evaluate Y but not Y. ker, K, log, 2 n trick nel Y w w istic Y w w w Y n on-linear Dependency : Large State Space :...,, statespace, 3 2 G G G Learning Structure In G G G Data G G Data Data G Too large state space to do summation d Y Y Y Intractable Integration Other MCMC like Metropolis-Hasting needed. see reference.

43 Metropolis-Hasting ----MCMC Metropolis-Hasting M-H is a general MCMC method to sample Y whenever we can evaluate Y. evaluation of Y not needed In M-H, instead of drawing from Y, we draw from another roposal Dist. T based on current sample, and Accept the roposal with probability: accept from to ' 'T' T ',, if o. w. 'T' T Accept? ' T

44 Eample : = μ,σ 2 roposal Dist. T =, red: Reject green: Accept. ' '..,, ;, ; ' - ', ' 2 2 case this T T o w if from to accept

46 Why Metropolis-Hasting has π T =? Detailed-Balance Sufficient Condition: If π T *T = π T *T, then π T is stationary under T. Given desired π T =, and a roposal dist. T, we can let Detailed Balance satisfied using accept prob. A :.., ' ' ' ' ' ', ' ' ' ' '* * ' ' e know : ', ' ' o w T T T T A define T T T T W then T T Assume T T π T π T

48 How to Collect Samples? Assume we want collecting samples: Cost = M* samples. Run times of MCMC and collect their M th samples. M MC Independent Samples M MC 2. Run time of MCMC and collect M+ th ~ M+ th samples. Cost = M + samples M M+ MC Correlated Samples

49 Comparison Cost = M* samples M M MC Independent Samples MC Cost = M + samples M MC M+ Correlated Samples E[ fˆ] E[ n f n ] E[ n f n ] n E[ f n ] E[ f ] o Independent Assumption Used Unbiased Estimator in both cases.
