Amortized Variational Inference for Joint Posterior and Predictive Distributions in Bayesian Uncertainty Quantification

Dimensions overall score 7.0

• A variational Bayesian framework for directly learning posterior-predictive distributions, enabling efficient and accurate uncertainty quantification. In practice, this is typically performed using a two-stage procedure: first approximating the posterior distribution of model parameters, and then propagating posterior samples through the predictive model via Monte Carlo simulation.problem 35%

• ScienceToStartup currently rates this 7.0/10 on the public viability pass. Numerical experiments ranging from analytical benchmarks to a finite-element solid mechanics problem demonstrate that the proposed method achieves more accurate predictive distributions than conventional two-stage variational inference, while substantially reducing the cost of online predictive inference. Code availability is flagged in the production record; the public repository link still needs proof alignment.result 35%
