Continuous Bernoulli distribution (original) (raw)
In probability theory, statistics, and machine learning, the continuous Bernoulli distribution is a family of continuous probability distributions parameterized by a single shape parameter , defined on the unit interval , by: The continuous Bernoulli also defines an exponential family of distributions. Writing for the natural parameter, the density can be rewritten in canonical form:.

dbo:abstract | In probability theory, statistics, and machine learning, the continuous Bernoulli distribution is a family of continuous probability distributions parameterized by a single shape parameter , defined on the unit interval , by: The continuous Bernoulli distribution arises in deep learning and computer vision, specifically in the context of variational autoencoders, for modeling the pixel intensities of natural images. As such, it defines a proper probabilistic counterpart for the commonly used binary cross entropy loss, which is often applied to continuous, -valued data. This practice amounts to ignoring the normalizing constant of the continuous Bernoulli distribution, since the binary cross entropy loss only defines a true log-likelihood for discrete, -valued data. The continuous Bernoulli also defines an exponential family of distributions. Writing for the natural parameter, the density can be rewritten in canonical form:. (en) |
