The most commonly used learning algorithm for restricted Boltzmann machines is contrastive divergence which starts a Markov chain at a data point and runs the chain for only a few...
— A learning machine is called singular if its Fisher information matrix is singular. Almost all learning machines used in information processing are singular, for example, layer...
Thermal simulations are important for advanced electronic systems at multiple length scales. A major challenge involves electrothermal phenomena within nanoscale transistors, whic...

We analyze the application of ensemble learning to recommender systems on the Netflix Prize dataset. For our analysis we use a set of diverse state-of-the-art collaborative filt...
Bayesian learning in undirected graphical models--computing posterior distributions over parameters and predictive quantities-is exceptionally difficult. We conjecture that for ge...
