While discriminative training (e.g., CRF, structural SVM) holds much promise for machine translation, image segmentation, and clustering, the complex inference these applications ...
We study the problem of finding the dominant eigenvector of the sample covariance matrix, under additional constraints on the vector: a cardinality constraint limits the number of...
The hierarchical Dirichlet process hidden Markov model (HDP-HMM) is a flexible, nonparametric model which allows state spaces of unknown size to be learned from data. We demonstra...
