Constraining a Bayesian Model of Human Visual Speed Perception
It has been demonstrated that basic aspects of human visual motion perception are qualitatively consistent with a Bayesian estimation framework, where the prior probability distri...

Modelling Uncertainty in the Game of Go
Go is an ancient oriental game whose complexity has defeated attempts to automate it. We suggest using probability in a Bayesian sense to model the uncertainty arising from the va...

Density Level Detection is Classification
We show that anomaly detection can be interpreted as a binary classification problem. Using this interpretation we propose a support vector machine (SVM) for anomaly detection. We...

Maximum-Margin Matrix Factorization
We present a novel approach to collaborative prediction, using low-norm instead of low-rank factorizations. The approach is inspired by, and has strong connections to, large-margi...

Generalization Error Bounds for Collaborative Prediction with Low-Rank Matrices
We prove generalization error bounds for predicting entries in a partially observed matrix by fitting the observed entries with a low-rank matrix. In justifying the analysis appro...

Using the Equivalent Kernel to Understand Gaussian Process Regression
The equivalent kernel [1] is a way of understanding how Gaussian process regression works for large sample sizes based on a continuum limit. In this paper we show (1) how to appro...

Surface Reconstruction using Learned Shape Models
We consider the problem of geometrical surface reconstruction from one or several images using learned shape models. While humans can effortlessly retrieve 3D shape information, t...

Learning Syntactic Patterns for Automatic Hypernym Discovery
Semantic taxonomies such as WordNet provide a rich source of knowledge for natural language processing applications, but are expensive to build, maintain, and extend. Motivated by...
