What is recorded here?
Transforms constrained continuous latent variables to unconstrained coordinates, selects Gaussian variational families and uses reparameterized automatic-differentiation gradients for generic optimization.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
Requires differentiable continuous-latent log densities and appropriate tractable transforms; discrete variables only fit when they can be tractably marginalized. Transformation and variational-family choices affect accuracy; no exact-posterior or arbitrary-model guarantee. Reparameterization, stochastic optimization and Stan autodiff are inherited.
