AI Seminar Series 2021: Marcus Brubaker

The AI Seminar is a weekly meeting at the University of Alberta where researchers interested in artificial intelligence (AI) can share their research. Presenters include both local speakers from the University of Alberta and visitors from other institutions. Topics can be related in any way to artificial intelligence, from foundational theoretical work to innovative applications of AI techniques to new fields and problems.

On September 17, Marcus Brubaker (Assistant Professor at York University and Faculty Affiliate at the Vector Institute) presented “Normalizing Flows in Theory and Practice" at the AI Seminar.

In the talk, Brubaker provides a brief review of normalizing flows, their growing popularity and how they can be used to build more expressive but analytically tractable stochastic processes.
