用凸优化提升神经似然估计，让贝叶斯反问题更稳定高效。

Many problems in science and engineering are difficult to model accurately, either due to unknown physical mechanisms, poorly quantified measurement uncertainty, or prohibitive computational costs of high-fidelity simulations. These challenges limit the applicability of classical probabilistic inference methods such as Markov chain Monte Carlo, especially in high-dimensional Bayesian inverse problems. As data from scientific experiments become increasingly available, machine learning methods offer a flexible alternative to explicit parametric modelling. We study neural likelihood approximation, where the goal is to learn the likelihood function directly from data without explicit knowledge of the underlying data-generating process. A common approach trains likelihood surrogates by minimizing the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the true posterior and an approximate posterior, which is equivalent to minimizing the expected negative log-likelihood. This work improves the theoretical foundations of neural likelihood approximation by alleviating limitations of restrictive model classes: we show that, by working with un-normalized potentials and folding normalization into the training objective, the resulting learning problem is strictly convex. We show that empirical minimizers of the resulting data-driven objective converge to the true likelihood as the sample size grows. Numerical experiments for the neural likelihood approximation are conducted for a deblurring and a non-linear PDE based imaging problem.
