Variational Bayes Estimation of Mixing Coefficients
We investigate theoretically some properties of variational Bayes approximations based on estimating the mixing coefficients of known densities. We show that, with probability 1 a...

Bayesian inference in estimation of distribution algorithms
— Metaheuristics such as Estimation of Distribution Algorithms and the Cross-Entropy method use probabilistic modelling and inference to generate candidate solutions in optimizat...

Gibbs Likelihoods for Bayesian Tracking
Bayesian methods for visual tracking model the likelihood of image measurements conditioned on a tracking hypothesis. Image measurements may, for example, correspond to various fi...

Approximately unbiased estimation of conditional variance in heteroscedastic kernel ridge regression
In this paper we extend a form of kernel ridge regression for data characterised by a heteroscedastic noise process (introduced in Foxall et al. [1]) in order to provide approxima...

A distributed learning framework for heterogeneous data sources
We present a probabilistic model-based framework for distributed learning that takes into account privacy restrictions and is applicable to scenarios where the different sites ha...
