The Conditional Restricted Boltzmann Machine (CRBM) is a recently proposed model for time series that has a rich, distributed hidden state and permits simple, exact inference. We ...
The kernel Perceptron is an appealing online learning algorithm that has a drawback: whenever it makes an error it must increase its support set, which slows training and testing ...
Recent advances in Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) have positioned it as an attractive tool for tackling many supervised learning tasks. The development of efficient gradient desce...
We present a novel technique for automated problem decomposition to address the problem of scalability in reinforcement learning. Our technique makes use of a set of near-optimal ...

This paper gives an efficient Bayesian method for inferring the parameters of a PlackettLuce ranking model. Such models are parameterised distributions over rankings of a finite s...
We present a generalized version of spectral clustering using the graph p-Laplacian, a nonlinear generalization of the standard graph Laplacian. We show that the second eigenvecto...
We present a novel approach for learning nonlinear dynamic models, which leads to a new set of tools capable of solving problems that are otherwise difficult. We provide theory sh...
