Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) have proven to perform well on natural language processing tasks like name transliteration, concept tagging or grapheme-to-phoneme (g2p) conversio...
—The low-rank matrix completion problem can be stated as follows: given a subset of the entries of a matrix, find a low-rank matrix consistent with the observations. There exist...
We describe an alternative to standard nonnegative matrix factorisation (NMF) for nonnegative dictionary learning. NMF with the Kullback-Leibler divergence can be seen as maximisa...
— Many real-world applications deal with uncertain or missing data, prompting a surge of activity in the area of probabilistic databases. A shortcoming of prior work is the assum...
