This structure serves as the kernel_results
for the SequentialMonteCarlo
transition kernel.

---|---|
steps
|
scalar int Tensor number of inference steps completed so far.
|
parent_indices
|
int Tensor of shape [num_particles, b1, ..., bN] ,
such that parent_indices[k] gives the indice(s) of the particle(s) at
the previous step from which the the k th current particle is
immediately descended. See also
tfp.experimental.mcmc.reconstruct_trajectories .
|
incremental_log_marginal_likelihood
|
float Tensor of shape
[b1, ..., bN] , giving the natural logarithm of an unbiased estimate of
the ratio in normalizing constants incurred in the most recent step
(typically this is the likelihood of observed data).
Note that (by Jensen's inequality)
this is smaller in expectation than the true log ratio.
|
cumulative_log_marginal_likelihood
|
float Tensor of shape
[b1, ..., bN] , giving the natural logarithm of an unbiased estimate of
the ratio in normalizing constants incurred since the initial step
(typically this is the likelihood of observed data).
Note that (by Jensen's inequality)
this is smaller in expectation than the true log ratio.

seed
|
The seed used in one_step. |
In some contexts, results may be stacked across multiple inference steps,
in which case all Tensor
shapes will be prefixed by an additional dimension
of size num_steps
.
