GaP: a factor model for discrete data
We present a probabilistic model for a document corpus that combines many of the desirable features of previous models. The model is called “GaP” for Gamma-Poisson, the distri...

Towards estimating the number of distinct value combinations for a set of attributes
Accurately and efficiently estimating the number of distinct values for some attribute(s) or sets of attributes in a data set is of critical importance to many database operation...

Vlasov simulations on an adaptive phase-space grid
We introduce here a new method for the numerical resolution of the Vlasov equation on a phase space grid using an adaptive semi-Lagrangian method. The adaptivity is obtained throu...

Noise-Contrastive Estimation of Unnormalized Statistical Models, with Applications to Natural Image Statistics
We consider the task of estimating, from observed data, a probabilistic model that is parameterized by a finite number of parameters. In particular, we are considering the situat...
