Inference of latent variables from complicated data is one important problem in data mining. The high dimensionality and high complexity of real world data often make accurate infe...
While discriminative training (e.g., CRF, structural SVM) holds much promise for machine translation, image segmentation, and clustering, the complex inference these applications ...
"Gaussian processes (GPs) provide a principled, practical, probabilistic approach to learning in kernel machines. GPs have received increased attention in the machine-learning...

Learning agents, whether natural or artificial, must update their internal parameters in order to improve their behavior over time. In reinforcement learning, this plasticity is ...
Background: Support Vector Machines (SVMs) ? using a variety of string kernels ? have been successfully applied to biological sequence classification problems. While SVMs achieve ...
