Ensemble methods that train multiple learners and then combine their predictions have been shown to be very effective in supervised learning. This paper explores ensemble methods ...
The situation in which a choice is made is an important information for recommender systems. Context-aware recommenders take this information into account to make predictions. So ...

Important ecological phenomena are often observed indirectly. Consequently, probabilistic latent variable models provide an important tool, because they can include explicit model...

This work proposes a learning method for deep architectures that takes advantage of sequential data, in particular from the temporal coherence that naturally exists in unlabeled v...
We investigate using gradient descent methods for learning ranking functions; we propose a simple probabilistic cost function, and we introduce RankNet, an implementation of these...
