We introduce a model class for statistical learning which is based on mixtures of propositional rules. In our mixture model, the weight of a rule is not uniform over the entire ins...
We present a probabilistic formulation of UCS (a sUpervised Classifier System). UCS is shown to be a special case of mixture of experts where the experts are learned independentl...

We introduce a new inference algorithm for Dirichlet process mixture models. While Gibbs sampling and variational methods focus on local moves, the new algorithm makes more global...
How to determine the number of clusters is an intractable problem in clustering analysis. In this paper, we propose a new learning paradigm named Maximum Weighted Likelihood (MwL)...
Capturing dependencies in images in an unsupervised manner is important for many image processing applications. We propose a new method for capturing nonlinear dependencies in ima...
