tfb_scale_tri_l {tfprobability}

Transforms unconstrained vectors to TriL matrices with positive diagonal

Description

This is implemented as a simple tfb_chain of tfb_fill_triangular followed by tfb_transform_diagonal, and provided mostly as a convenience. The default setup is somewhat opinionated, using a Softplus transformation followed by a small shift (1e-5) which attempts to avoid numerical issues from zeros on the diagonal.

Usage

tfb_scale_tri_l(
  diag_bijector = NULL,
  diag_shift = 1e-05,
  validate_args = FALSE,
  name = "scale_tril"
)

Arguments

diag_bijector

Bijector instance, used to transform the output diagonal to be positive. Default value: NULL (i.e., tfb_softplus()).

diag_shift

Float value broadcastable and added to all diagonal entries after applying the diag_bijector. Setting a positive value forces the output diagonal entries to be positive, but prevents inverting the transformation for matrices with diagonal entries less than this value. Default value: 1e-5.

validate_args

Logical, default FALSE. Whether to validate input with asserts. If validate_args is FALSE, and the inputs are invalid, correct behavior is not guaranteed.

name

name prefixed to Ops created by this class.

Value

a bijector instance.
