Flow-Transformed Implicit Processes for Function-Space Variational Inference

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2606.01954v1 Announce Type: new Implicit-process priors define distributions over functions through flexible generative mechanisms, making them attractive for Bayesian function-space modelling. However, performing posterior inference with such priors is challenging because their induced function-space distributions are typically not available in closed form. One practical strategy is to approximate the prior using a finite collection of sampled functions, and then represent posterior functions as learned combinations of these samples.
