Sentence Similarity is the process of computing a similarity score between two sentences. Previous sentence similarity work finds that latent semantics approaches to the problem ...
We propose a latent variable model to enhance historical analysis of large corpora. This work extends prior work in topic modelling by incorporating metadata, and the interactions...

In this paper, we aim to reconstruct free-form 3D models from only one or few silhouettes by learning the prior knowledge of a specific class of objects. Instead of heuristically...
The present paper describes a robust approach for abbreviating terms. First, in order to incorporate non-local information into abbreviation generation tasks, we present both impl...
Abstract We propose a procedure based on a latent variable model for the comparison of two partitions of different units described by the same set of variables. The null hypothesis...
Latent variable models represent the probability density of data in a space of several dimensions in terms of a smaller number of latent, or hidden, variables. A familiar example ...
We develop a new component analysis framework, the Noisy-Or Component Analyzer (NOCA), that targets high-dimensional binary data. NOCA is a probabilistic latent variable model tha...
A method for estimating time delays between signals that are irregularly sampled is presented. The approach is based on postulating a latent variable model from which the observed...
Background: Various statistical scores have been proposed for evaluating the significance of genes that may exhibit differential expression between two or more controlled conditio...
Abstract. We investigate a nonparametric model with which to visualize the relationship between two datasets. We base our model on Gaussian Process Latent Variable Models (GPLVM)[1...
