A latent variable model for query expansion using the hidden markov model
We propose a novel probabilistic method based on the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to learn the structure of a Latent Variable Model (LVM) for query language modeling. In the proposed...

Greedy Learning of Binary Latent Trees
—Inferring latent structures from observations helps to model and possibly also understand underlying data generating processes. A rich class of latent structures are the latent ...

Noisy-OR Models with Latent Confounding
Given a set of experiments in which varying subsets of observed variables are subject to intervention, we consider the problem of identifiability of causal models exhibiting late...

Latent Process Model for Manifold Learning
In this paper, we propose a novel stochastic framework for unsupervised manifold learning. The latent variables are introduced, and the latent processes are assumed to characteriz...

New d-separation identification results for learning continuous latent variable models
Learning the structure of graphical models is an important task, but one of considerable difficulty when latent variables are involved. Because conditional independences using hid...
