Thin Junction Trees
We present an algorithm that induces a class of models with thin junction trees--models that are characterized by an upper bound on the size of the maximal cliques of their triang...

KLD-Sampling: Adaptive Particle Filters
Over the last years, particle filters have been applied with great success to a variety of state estimation problems. We present a statistical approach to increasing the efficienc...

Bayesian morphometry of hippocampal cells suggests same-cell somatodendritic repulsion
Visual inspection of neurons suggests that dendritic orientation may be determined both by internal constraints (e.g. membrane tension) and by external vector fields (e.g. neurotr...

A Direct Formulation for Sparse PCA Using Semidefinite Programming
We examine the problem of approximating, in the Frobenius-norm sense, a positive, semidefinite symmetric matrix by a rank-one matrix, with an upper bound on the cardinality of its...

Nonparametric Transforms of Graph Kernels for Semi-Supervised Learning
We present an algorithm based on convex optimization for constructing kernels for semi-supervised learning. The kernel matrices are derived from the spectral decomposition of grap...

Semi-supervised Learning on Directed Graphs
Given a directed graph in which some of the nodes are labeled, we investigate the question of how to exploit the link structure of the graph to infer the labels of the remaining u...
