Researchers have developed a new method for amortized posterior estimation using Normalizing Flows trained with likelihood-weighted importance sampling. This technique efficiently infers theoretical parameters in high-dimensional inverse problems without requiring posterior training samples. The study highlights the importance of base distribution topology, finding that standard unimodal distributions fail to capture disconnected modes, leading to spurious probability bridges. Initializing the flow with a Gaussian Mixture Model that matches the target modes' cardinality significantly improves reconstruction fidelity. AI
