This paper describes a new approach to unify constraints on parameters with training data to perform parameter estimation in Bayesian networks of known structure. The method is ge...
Probabilistic expert systemsbased on Bayesian networks(BNs)require initial specification both a qualitative graphical structure and quantitative assessmentof conditional probabili...
We introduce a class of nonstationary covariance functions for Gaussian process (GP) regression. Nonstationary covariance functions allow the model to adapt to functions whose smo...
Bayesian network models are widely used for discriminative prediction tasks such as classification. Usually their parameters are determined using 'unsupervised' methods ...
In this paper we propose a Bayesian model for multi-task feature selection. This model is based on a generalized spike and slab sparse prior distribution that enforces the selectio...
