We introduce a nonparametric representation for graphical model on trees which expresses marginals as Hilbert space embeddings and conditionals as embedding operators. This formul...

Feature selection for supervised learning can be greatly improved by making use of the fact that features often come in classes. For example, in gene expression data, the genes wh...

We present an algorithm to infer causal relations between a set of measured variables on the basis of experiments on these variables. The algorithm assumes that the causal relatio...

In this paper we consider a regularization approach to variable selection when the regression function depends nonlinearly on a few input variables. The proposed method is based o...

Prior distributions play a crucial role in Bayesian approaches to clustering. Two commonly-used prior distributions are the Dirichlet and Pitman-Yor processes. In this paper, we i...

We study the problem of active learning with convex loss functions. We prove that even under bounded noise constraints, the minimax rates for proper active learning are often no b...

We present an approximate inference approach to parameter estimation in a spatio-temporal stochastic process of the reaction-diffusion type. The continuous space limit of an infer...
