Efficient Learning of Deep Boltzmann Machines
We present a new approximate inference algorithm for Deep Boltzmann Machines (DBM's), a generative model with many layers of hidden variables. The algorithm learns a separate...

Posterior distributions are computable from predictive distributions
As we devise more complicated prior distributions, will inference algorithms keep up? We highlight a negative result in computable probability theory by Ackerman, Freer, and Roy (...

Structured Prediction Cascades
Structured prediction tasks pose a fundamental trade-off between the need for model complexity to increase predictive power and the limited computational resources for inference i...

Bayesian Generalized Kernel Models
We propose a fully Bayesian approach for generalized kernel models (GKMs), which are extensions of generalized linear models in the feature space induced by a reproducing kernel. ...

Improving posterior marginal approximations in latent Gaussian models
We consider the problem of correcting the posterior marginal approximations computed by expectation propagation and Laplace approximation in latent Gaussian models and propose cor...

Efficient Reductions for Imitation Learning
Imitation Learning, while applied successfully on many large real-world problems, is typically addressed as a standard supervised learning problem, where it is assumed the trainin...

Discriminative Topic Segmentation of Text and Speech
We explore automated discovery of topicallycoherent segments in speech or text sequences. We give two new discriminative topic segmentation algorithms which employ a new measure o...

Empirical Bernstein Boosting
Concentration inequalities that incorporate variance information (such as Bernstein's or Bennett's inequality) are often significantly tighter than counterparts (such as...
