Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) are a convenient and essential tool for the estimation of probability density functions. Although GMMs are used in many research domains from image ...
In spite of the popularity of probabilistic mixture models for latent structure discovery from data, mixture models do not have a natural mechanism for handling sparsity, where ea...
This paper presents multi-conditional learning (MCL), a training criterion based on a product of multiple conditional likelihoods. When combining the traditional conditional proba...

This paper presents a general and efficient framework for probabilistic inference and learning from arbitrary uncertain information. It exploits the calculation properties of fini...
Analyzing protein sequence data becomes increasingly important recently. Most previous work on this area has mainly focused on building classification models. In this paper, we i...
