Krishnan, Matthew D. Hoffman, and Tony Jebara, in The Web Conference (aka WWW) 2018. In this notebook, we show a complete self-contained example of training a variational autoencoder (as well as a denoising autoencoder) with multinomial likelihood (described in the paper) on the public Movielens-20M dataset, including both data preprocessing and model training.
