Variational Inference with Measurement Error

Variational inference with measurement error is a scalable Bayesian approach that simultaneously estimates model parameters and latent true covariates when observed variables are contaminated by noise. Rather than sampling the posterior via MCMC, it finds the closest tractable distribution to the true posterior by maximising the evidence lower bound (ELBO), making it applicable to large datasets where full MCMC is too costly.
