We present a new unsupervised algorithm for training structured predictors that is discriminative, convex, and avoids the use of EM. The idea is to formulate an unsupervised versi...

Analysis of biopolymer sequences and structures generally adopts one of two approaches: use of detailed biophysical theoretical models of the system with experimentally-determined...

Abstract--This letter considers the average complexity of maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding of convolutional codes. ML decoding can be modeled as finding the most probable path take...
Abstract. Score functions induced by generative models extract fixeddimensions feature vectors from different-length data observations by subsuming the process of data generation, ...

We introduce a novel framework for simultaneous structure and parameter learning in hidden-variable conditional probability models, based on an entropic prior and a solution for i...
