Denoising Criterion for Variational Auto-encoding Framework (Pytorch Version of DVAE)

Python (Theano) implementation of Denoising Criterion for Variational Auto-encoding Framework code provided by Daniel Jiwoong Im, Sungjin Ahn, Roland Memisevic, and Yoshua Bengio. Denoising criterion injects noise in input and attempts to generate the original data. This is shown to be advantageous. The codes include training criterion which corresponds to a tractable bound when input is corrupted. For more information, see
