English(EN) Occam's Razor is Only as Sharp as Your ELBO

通过ELBO进行的贝叶斯模型选择可能导致过拟合,提醒从业者注意

一篇新论文探讨了证据下界(ELBO)与贝叶斯模型选择中的奥卡姆剃刀之间的关系。研究表明,基于ELBO的超参数学习可能导致过拟合,这与偏好更简单模型的奥卡姆剃刀原则相悖。令人惊讶的是,使用证据本身的贝叶斯模型选择有时会偏好过拟合模型,而ELBO则不会。研究结果表明,从业者应警惕降秩假设(在大模型中为便于处理而必需)如何影响模型选择。 AI

影响 强调了大型贝叶斯模型在模型选择中潜在的陷阱,影响了该领域的从业者。

    Occam's Razor is Only as Sharp as Your ELBO

    The marginal likelihood, also known as the evidence, is regarded as a mathematical embodiment of Occam's razor, enabling model selection that avoids overfitting. The evidence lower bound (ELBO) objective from variational inference has also been used for similar purposes. Prior wo…
