Measure Transformer Semantics for Bayesian Machine Learning
Abstract. The Bayesian approach to machine learning amounts to inferring posterior distributions of random variables from a probabilistic model of how the variables are related (th...

Expectation Consistent Free Energies for Approximate Inference
We propose a novel a framework for deriving approximations for intractable probabilistic models. This framework is based on a free energy (negative log marginal likelihood) and ca...

Focused Belief Propagation for Query-Specific Inference
With the increasing popularity of largescale probabilistic graphical models, even "lightweight" approximate inference methods are becoming infeasible. Fortunately, often...

Probabilistic pointing target prediction via inverse optimal control
Numerous interaction techniques have been developed that make “virtual” pointing at targets in graphical user interfaces easier than analogous physical pointing tasks by invok...

Robot trajectory optimization using approximate inference
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 ...
