Description

@ngoodman and @neerajprad both needed to do inference over 2-dimensional tables with sparse entries. This is common problem, and we should share any solutions that work.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review existing Pyro examples, especially those using pyro.plate, and understand how to handle sparse data structures. Then create a concise tutorial demonstrating inference over 2D tables with sparse entries.
