We present a tutorial survey on some recent approaches to unsupervised machine learning in the context of statistical pattern recognition. In statistical PR, there are two classica...
Complex networks exist in a wide array of diverse domains, ranging from biology, sociology, and computer science. These real-world networks, while disparate in nature, often compr...

We propose a novel method for inferring whether X causes Y or vice versa from joint observations of X and Y . The basic idea is to model the observed data using probabilistic late...
We advocate the use of Scaled Gaussian Process Latent Variable Models (SGPLVM) to learn prior models of 3D human pose for 3D people tracking. The SGPLVM simultaneously optimizes a...

Nonnegative matrix tri-factorization (NMTF) is a 3-factor decomposition of a nonnegative data matrix, X USV , where factor matrices, U, S, and V , are restricted to be nonnegativ...
