We often seek to identify co-occurring hidden features in a set of observations. The Indian Buffet Process (IBP) provides a nonparametric prior on the features present in each obs...
In recent years, a fundamental problem structure has emerged as very useful in a variety of machine learning applications: Submodularity is an intuitive diminishing returns proper...
The recent upsurge of research toward compressive sampling and parsimonious signal representations hinges on signals being sparse, either naturally, or, after projecting them on a...

We address the problem of transferring information learned from experiments to a different environment, in which only passive observations can be collected. We introduce a formal ...
We present sparse topical coding (STC), a non-probabilistic formulation of topic models for discovering latent representations of large collections of data. Unlike probabilistic t...
