Brain-like Variational Inference

arXiv — cs.LG•Monday, October 27, 2025 at 4:00:00 AM

A new framework called FOND has been introduced, bridging the gap between neuroscience and machine learning by optimizing inference processes. This innovative approach not only enhances our understanding of how brains and machines infer information but also opens up new avenues for research and application in both fields. By maximizing the evidence lower bound, FOND could lead to advancements in artificial intelligence that mimic human cognitive processes more closely, making it a significant development in the quest for smarter machines.
