    Performs a batched matrix-vector product, with compatible but different batch shapes.

    This function takes as input `bmat`, containing :math:`n \times n` matrices, and
    `bvec`, containing length :math:`n` vectors.

    Both `bmat` and `bvec` may have any number of leading dimensions, which correspond
    to a batch shape. They are not necessarily assumed to have the same batch shape,
    just ones which can be broadcasted.

[docs]class MultivariateNormal(Distribution): r""" Creates a multivariate normal (also called Gaussian) distribution parameterized by a mean vector and a covariance matrix. The multivariate normal distribution can be parameterized either in terms of a positive definite covariance matrix :math:`\mathbf{\Sigma}` or a positive definite precision matrix :math:`\mathbf{\Sigma}^{-1}` or a lower-triangular matrix :math:`\mathbf{L}` with positive-valued diagonal entries, such that :math:`\mathbf{\Sigma} = \mathbf{L}\mathbf{L}^\top`. This triangular matrix can be obtained via e.g. Cholesky decomposition of the covariance. Example: >>> # xdoctest: +REQUIRES(env:TORCH_DOCTEST_LAPACK) >>> # xdoctest: +IGNORE_WANT("non-deterministic") >>> m = MultivariateNormal(torch.zeros(2), torch.eye(2)) >>> m.sample() # normally distributed with mean=`[0,0]` and covariance_matrix=`I` tensor([-0.2102, -0.5429]) Args: loc (Tensor): mean of the distribution covariance_matrix (Tensor): positive-definite covariance matrix precision_matrix (Tensor): positive-definite precision matrix scale_tril (Tensor): lower-triangular factor of covariance, with positive-valued diagonal Note: Only one of :attr:`covariance_matrix` or :attr:`precision_matrix` or :attr:`scale_tril` can be specified. Using :attr:`scale_tril` will be more efficient: all computations internally are based on :attr:`scale_tril`. If :attr:`covariance_matrix` or :attr:`precision_matrix` is passed instead, it is only used to compute the corresponding lower triangular matrices using a Cholesky decomposition.
