Hi all,

 This Tuesday, 19th November, Hugo Larochelle is visiting our lab and is going to give a talk. The time is 10:30 AM, place is Z300, pavilion McNicoll.

Title: Deep Learning for Distribution Estimation

Abstract::

In this talk, I will present my recent research on using neural networks for the task of distribution/density estimation, a fundamental problem in machine learning. Specifically, I will discuss the neural autoregressive distribution estimator (NADE), a state-of-the-art estimator of the probability distribution of data along with its various extensions. I will also describe a recent deep version of NADE, which again illustrates the statistical modelling power of deep models.

Hope to see many of you there,
Best,
Razvan
