[docs]class DiscreteCosineReparam(UnitJacobianReparam): """ Discrete Cosine reparameterizer, using a :class:`~pyro.distributions.transforms.DiscreteCosineTransform` . This is useful for sequential models where coupling along a time-like axis (e.g. a banded precision matrix) introduces long-range correlation. This reparameterizes to a frequency-domain representation where posterior covariance should be closer to diagonal, thereby improving the accuracy of diagonal guides in SVI and improving the effectiveness of a diagonal mass matrix in HMC. When reparameterizing variables that are approximately continuous along the time dimension, set ``smooth=1``. For variables that are approximately continuously differentiable along the time axis, set ``smooth=2``. This reparameterization works only for latent variables, not likelihoods. :param int dim: Dimension along which to transform. Must be negative. This is an absolute dim counting from the right. :param float smooth: Smoothing parameter. When 0, this transforms white noise to white noise; when 1 this transforms Brownian noise to to white noise; when -1 this transforms violet noise to white noise; etc. Any real number is allowed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise. :param bool experimental_allow_batch: EXPERIMENTAL allow coupling across a batch dimension. The targeted batch dimension and all batch dimensions to the right will be converted to event dimensions. Defaults to False.
