We develop a method that can be used to turn any multi-layer perceptron or convolutional network into a normalizing flow. In some cases this requires the addition of uncorrelated noise to the model but in the simplest case no additional parameters. The techniques we develop can be applied to a broad range of transformations. Converting standard models to normalizing flows allows the same architectures to be used for a wide range of tasks. Our models also allow existing density estimation techniques to be combined with high performance feature extractors and for the exact likelihood to be calculated. In contrast to standard density estimation techniques that require specific architectures and specialized knowledge, our approach can leverage design knowledge from other domains and is a step closer to the realization of general purpose architectures. We investigate the efficacy of linear and convolutional layers for the task of density estimation on standard datasets. Our results suggest standard layers lack something fundamental that other normalizing flows do not.We develop a method that can be used to turn any multi-layer perceptron or convolutional network into a normalizing flow.
