This is a sample implementation of variational autoencoder.
This method is proposed by Kingma and Welling, Auto-Encoding Variational Bayes, 2014.
If you want to run this example on the N-th GPU, pass --gpu=N to the script.
If you run this script on Linux, setting the environmental variable MPLBACKEND to Agg may be required to use matplotlib. For example,
MPLBACKEND=Agg python train_vae.py
