Which approach approximates likelihoods using ELBO?
Answer options
A
GANs
B
VAEs
C
HMMs
D
SVMs
Correct answer: VAEs
Explanation
Quick AnswerThe correct answer is VAEs because it directly addresses the core logic of Generative AI.
ELBO (Evidence Lower BOund) is the VAE training objective. Maximizing ELBO is equivalent to maximizing a lower bound on the data log-likelihood while regularizing the latent space.
