Sparse coding--that is, modelling data vectors as sparse linear combinations of basis elements--is widely used in machine learning, neuroscience, signal processing, and statistics...

We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...
Different formal learning models address different aspects of learning. Below we compare learning via queries—interpreting learning as a one-shot process in which the learner i...
Design becomes more and more the art of bringing together expertise and experts from different domains in creating future products. Synthetical knowledge and hands-on skills in des...

We present a method for mapping a given Bayesian network to a Boltzmann machine architecture, in the sense that the the updating process of the resulting Boltzmann machine model pr...
