There is a notable interest in extending probabilistic generative modeling principles to accommodate for more complex structured data types. In this paper we develop a generative ...
We initiate a novel study of clustering problems. Rather than specifying an explicit objective function to optimize, our framework allows the user of clustering algorithm to speci...
