Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) represent a fundamental breakthrough in generative modeling, combining the power of deep neural networks with principled Bayesian inference. Introduced by Kingma and Welling (2013) [1], VAEs provide a scalable framework for learning complex probabilistic models with continuous latent variables.

This blog provides a primer on generative modeling, summarizing introductory knowledge required before venturing into more advanced topics. It will serve as a foundational piece that I plan to build upon and update whenever necessary. As I delve deeper into the subject, I intend to create more comprehensive articles focusing on various topics, This blog acts as an initial stepping stone towards that goal.

Dimensionality reduction is the transformation of data from a higher dimensional space to low-dimensional space, such that the information loss is minimum. Dimensionality reduction can be used for noise reduction, data visualization, cluster analysis, or as an intermediate step to facilitate other analyses. Principal Component analysis(PCA) is one such technique.
