Abstract
This talk identifies several characteristics of approximate MCMC in Bayesian deep learning. It proposes an approximate sampling algorithm for neural networks. By analogy to sampling data batches from big datasets, it is proposed to sample parameter subgroups from neural network parameter spaces of high dimensions. While the advantages of minibatch MCMC have been discussed in the literature, blocked Gibbs sampling has received less research attention in Bayesian deep learning.
