Learning and using relational theories
Much of human knowledge is organized into sophisticated systems that are often called intuitive theories. We propose that intuitive theories are mentally represented in a logical ...

Modeling homophily and stochastic equivalence in symmetric relational data
This article discusses a latent variable model for inference and prediction of symmetric relational data. The model, based on the idea of the eigenvalue decomposition, represents ...

People Tracking with the Laplacian Eigenmaps Latent Variable Model
Reliably recovering 3D human pose from monocular video requires models that bias the estimates towards typical human poses and motions. We construct priors for people tracking usi...

Direct Importance Estimation with Model Selection and Its Application to Covariate Shift Adaptation
A situation where training and test samples follow different input distributions is called covariate shift. Under covariate shift, standard learning methods such as maximum likeli...

Congruence between model and human attention reveals unique signatures of critical visual events
Current computational models of bottom-up and top-down components of attention are predictive of eye movements across a range of stimuli and of simple, fixed visual tasks (such a...

The Generalized FITC Approximation
We present an efficient generalization of the sparse pseudo-input Gaussian process (SPGP) model developed by Snelson and Ghahramani [1], applying it to binary classification pro...
