Abstract. Switching linear dynamic systems (SLDS) attempt to describe a complex nonlinear dynamic system with a succession of linear models indexed by a switching variable. Unfortu...
Learning Bayesian networks from data is an N-P hard problem with important practical applications. Several researchers have designed algorithms to overcome the computational comple...
Background: Gene-gene epistatic interactions likely play an important role in the genetic basis of many common diseases. Recently, machine-learning and data mining methods have be...

Abstract. Many examples exist of multivariate time series where dependencies between variables change over time. If these changing dependencies are not taken into account, any mode...
The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular algorithm for parameter estimation in models with hidden variables. However, the algorithm has several non-trivial limitat...
