Bayesian Document Generative Model with Explicit Multiple Topics
In this paper, we proposed a novel probabilistic generative model to deal with explicit multiple-topic documents: Parametric Dirichlet Mixture Model(PDMM). PDMM is an expansion of...

Identifiability: A Fundamental Problem of Student Modeling
In this paper we show how model identifiability is an issue for student modeling: observed student performance corresponds to an infinite family of possible model parameter estimat...

Learning stick-figure models using nonparametric Bayesian priors over trees
We present a fully probabilistic stick-figure model that uses a nonparametric Bayesian distribution over trees for its structure prior. Sticks are represented by nodes in a tree i...

Covariance in Unsupervised Learning of Probabilistic Grammars
Probabilistic grammars offer great flexibility in modeling discrete sequential data like natural language text. Their symbolic component is amenable to inspection by humans, while...

Accounting for input model and parameter uncertainty in simulation
Taking into account input-model, input-parameter, and stochastic uncertainties inherent in many simulations, our Bayesian approach to input modeling yields valid point and confide...
