Approximate Inference Algorithms

Post by MarkovManiac »

I was wondering if there was anyway to set certain parameters (such as the number of samples that are being taken) for the approximate inference algorithms. I know how the algorithms work, but how is SMILE implementing them. Is there a way to see what the weights of samples after the algorithm has ran? Thanks.

Yes, see the 'Sampling' page in network properties. Currently we expose the sample count and a set of parameters specific to the EPIS algorithm.

No.
