The formalism of probabilistic graphical models provides a unifying framework for capturing complex dependencies among random variables, and building large-scale multivariate stat...
There has been much interest in unsupervised learning of hierarchical generative models such as deep belief networks. Scaling such models to full-sized, high-dimensional images re...

We propose a new probabilistic approach to information retrieval based upon the ideas and methods of statistical machine translation. The central ingredient in this approach is a ...
We study unsupervised learning of occluding objects in images of visual scenes. The derived learning algorithm is based on a probabilistic generative model which parameterizes obj...
See a PPT file with videos at www.research.microsoft.com/users/jojic/FlexiblesSprites.htm We propose a technique for automatically learning layers of "flexible sprites" ...
