Learning curves for Gaussian process (GP) regression can be strongly affected by a mismatch between the ‘student’ model and the ‘teacher’ (true data generation process), e...
Given a model family and a set of unlabeled examples, one could either label specific examples or state general constraints--both provide information about the desired model. In g...
I consider the setting of transductive learning of vertex labels in graphs, in which a graph with n vertices is sampled according to some unknown distribution; there is a true lab...
Bayesian networks are a powerful probabilistic representation, and their use for classification has received considerable attention. However, they tend to perform poorly when lear...
Abstract. We consider the problem of learning stochastic tree languages, i.e. probability distributions over a set of trees T(F), from a sample of trees independently drawn accordi...
