Résumé	Robust variational inference (RVI) extends standard variational inference by replacing the Kullback-Leibler divergence with a divergence measure that is less sensitive to outliers and model misspecification — such as the beta-divergence or a Renyi-type divergence. This yields posterior approximations that remain well-behaved even when a fraction of the data departs from the assumed model.	Robust Bayesian inference extends standard Bayesian analysis by replacing a single prior distribution with a class of plausible priors and examining how much the posterior conclusions change across that class. Instead of committing to one prior, the analyst bounds the posterior quantity of interest, revealing whether findings are stable or critically dependent on prior assumptions.
