Modeling changing dependency structure in multivariate time series
We show how to apply the efficient Bayesian changepoint detection techniques of Fearnhead in the multivariate setting. We model the joint density of vector-valued observations usi...

Adaptive First-Order Methods for General Sparse Inverse Covariance Selection
In this paper, we consider estimating sparse inverse covariance of a Gaussian graphical model whose conditional independence is assumed to be partially known. Similarly as in [5],...

Gaussian Distributions on Lie Groups and Their Application to Statistical Shape Analysis
The Gaussian distribution is the basis for many methods used in the statistical analysis of shape. One such method is principal component analysis, which has proven to be a powerfu...

Bayesian actor-critic algorithms
We1 present a new actor-critic learning model in which a Bayesian class of non-parametric critics, using Gaussian process temporal difference learning is used. Such critics model ...

Bayes Meets Bellman: The Gaussian Process Approach to Temporal Difference Learning
We present a novel Bayesian approach to the problem of value function estimation in continuous state spaces. We define a probabilistic generative model for the value function by i...
