	abstract = {Neural density estimators such as normalizing flows have shown promise for estimation of the Bayesian posterior in a variety of imaging problems. Few works have explored how to practically exploit the probabilistic information contained in the full Bayesian solution of the inverse problem. Here we explore a simple modification to conditional normalizing flow training that enables Bayesian experimental design without modifying existing architectures. Based on a relationship between the expected information gain and maximum-likelihood training of normalizing flows, we show that experimental design can be achieved with the same training objective. We first verify that our method maximizes the expected information gain using a stylized problem. Then, we demonstrate our method can solve imaging problems in large scale medical and seismic applications.},

	abstract = {Neural density estimators, such as invertible normalizing flows, are capable of estimating the Bayesian posterior distribution in a variety of imaging problems, including medical MRI and seismic imaging/monitoring. So far, few works explore the possibility to make explicit use of probabilistic information contained within the full Bayesian solution of these inverse problems. During our talk, we investigate how a simple modification to the training objective of conditional normalizing flows allows for Bayesian experimental design without modifying the normalizing flow{\textquoteright}s neural architecture itself. By establishing a key relationship between the expected information gain (EIG) and the maximum-likelihood, attained during the training of normalizing flows, we show that optimal experimental design can be achieved. During our talk, we first verify, on a stylized problem, that our method indeed maximizes the expected information gain, followed by demonstrating the advocacy of our methodology on large-scale medical and seismic problems.},

	abstract = {We present the first known exploration of a normalizing flow (NF) for generative 3D volumes. First, we tackle computational issues surrounding the high dimensionality of our desired 3D volume output. This is of particular concern in normalizing flows since their invertibility constraint implies equal dimension of output and input. Our findings show that by {\textquotedblleft}freezing{\textquotedblright} expensive layers we can efficiently train a normalizing flow on 3D volumes. Using this NF architecture, we train a generative model on volume sections of the 3D BG compass model. Our method produces visually plausible generative samples which are efficient to produce. We demonstrate its practical use by using our trained generative model as an implicit prior in a Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) framework. We evaluate this MAP framework by estimating the solution of a inverse problem in seismic imaging. Our method results in higher SNR estimates than the baseline and in less iterations, importantly saving the computational cost of evaluating the expensive 3D PDE solver during optimization. Finally, through scaling analysis of training cost, we show that NF convolutional layers allow this approach to scale favorably to larger volumes.},
