A latent variable model for query expansion using the hidden markov model
We propose a novel probabilistic method based on the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to learn the structure of a Latent Variable Model (LVM) for query language modeling. In the proposed...

Agreement-Based Learning
The learning of probabilistic models with many hidden variables and nondecomposable dependencies is an important and challenging problem. In contrast to traditional approaches bas...

Dimensionality reduction of electropalatographic data using latent variable models
We consider the problem of obtaining a reduced dimension representation of electropalatographic (EPG) data. An unsupervised learning approach based on latent variable modelling is...

Monocular Tracking 3D People By Gaussian Process Spatio-Temporal Variable Model
Tracking 3D people from monocular video is often poorly constrained. To mitigate this problem, prior knowledge should be exploited. In this paper, the Gaussian process spatio-temp...

U-Likelihood and U-Updating Algorithms: Statistical Inference in Latent Variable Models
Abstract. In this paper we consider latent variable models and introduce a new U-likelihood concept for estimating the distribution over hidden variables. One can derive an estimat...
