Bayesian Inference for Non-linear forward model by using a VAE-based neural network structure (2024)
Journal Article
Zhang, Y., Zheng, J., & Chappell, M. (2024). Bayesian Inference for Non-linear forward model by using a VAE-based neural network structure. IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 72, 1400-1411. https://doi.org/10.1109/TSP.2024.3374115

In this paper, a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) based framework is introduced to solve parameter estimation problems for non-linear forward models. In particular, we focus on applications in the field of medical imaging where many thousands of model-b...
