pymc.MeanField.sample_node#
- MeanField.sample_node(node, size=None, deterministic=False, more_replacements=None)#
Samples given node or nodes over shared posterior
- Parameters:
- node: PyTensor Variables (or PyTensor expressions)
- size: None or scalar
number of samples
- more_replacements: `dict`
add custom replacements to graph, e.g. change input source
- deterministic: bool
whether to use zeros as initial distribution if True - zero initial point will produce constant latent variables
- Returns:
sampled
node
(s
)with
replacements
