The general stochastic optimal control (SOC) problem in robotics scenarios is often too complex to be solved exactly and in near real time. A classical approximate solution is to ...
We propose a nonparametric extension to the factor analysis problem using a beta process prior. This beta process factor analysis (BPFA) model allows for a dataset to be decompose...
In this paper, we extend the Hilbert space embedding approach to handle conditional distributions. We derive a kernel estimate for the conditional embedding, and show its connecti...

This paper presents a novel Gaussian process (GP) approach to regression with inputdependent noise rates. We follow Goldberg et al.'s approach and model the noise variance us...

The scores returned by support vector machines are often used as a confidence measures in the classification of new examples. However, there is no theoretical argument sustaining ...
