Many real-world sequence learning tasks require the prediction of sequences of labels from noisy, unsegmented input data. In speech recognition, for example, an acoustic signal is...
Elimination by aspects (EBA) is a probabilistic choice model describing how humans decide between several options. The options from which the choice is made are characterized by b...
When constructing a classifier from labeled data, it is important not to assign too much weight to any single input feature, in order to increase the robustness of the classifier....
We extend tree-based methods to the prediction of structured outputs using a kernelization of the algorithm that allows one to grow trees as soon as a kernel can be defined on the...
Probabilistic modelling of text data in the bagof-words representation has been dominated by directed graphical models such as pLSI, LDA, NMF, and discrete PCA. Recently, state of...
We consider the sparse grid combination technique for regression, which we regard as a problem of function reconstruction in some given function space. We use a regularised least ...
We describe a general framework for online multiclass learning based on the notion of hypothesis sharing. In our framework sets of classes are associated with hypotheses. Thus, al...

When the transition probabilities and rewards of a Markov Decision Process are specified exactly, the problem can be solved without any interaction with the environment. When no s...
We present a simple statistical model of molecular function evolution to predict protein function. The model description encodes general knowledge of how molecular function evolve...

The Dirichlet compound multinomial (DCM) distribution, also called the multivariate Polya distribution, is a model for text documents that takes into account burstiness: the fact ...
