New paper, with @rkhashmani.me @marielpettee.bsky.social @garrettmerz.bsky.social Hellen Qu. We introduce a framework for generating realistic, highly multimodal datasets with explicitly calculable mutual information. This is helpful for studying self-supervised learning

We use score matching and a trick from quantum field theory to make a product-of-experts family both expressive and efficient for variational inference.
