This paper concerns learning and prediction with probabilistic models where the domain sizes of latent variables have no a priori upper-bound. Current approaches represent prior d...
Statistical selection procedures can identify the best of a finite set of alternatives, where “best” is defined in terms of the unknown expected value of each alternative’...
Abstract. Kernel based methods (such as k-nearest neighbors classifiers) for AI tasks translate the classification problem into a proximity search problem, in a space that is usu...
The Viterbi algorithm is an efficient and optimal method for decoding linear-chain Markov Models. However, the entire input sequence must be observed before the labels for any tim...
Abstract. A popular framework for the interpretation of image sequences is the layers or sprite model, see e.g. [1], [2]. Jojic and Frey [3] provide a generative probabilistic mode...
