Matrix factorization algorithms are frequently used in the machine learning community to find low dimensional representations of data. We introduce a novel generative Bayesian pro...
The infinite hidden Markov model is a nonparametric extension of the widely used hidden Markov model. Our paper introduces a new inference algorithm for the infinite Hidden Markov...
