Missing Data Imputation under Manifold Hypothesis
Zelong Bi, Amuchechukwu Ibenegbu
The manifold hypothesis posits that high-dimensional data are concentrated near a low-dimensional embedded manifold. Recent advances in mixture variational autoencoders (VAEs) provide a powerful tool for extracting such underlying structure in a faithful manner. The resulting geo…
