Exponential families and simplification of mixture models
Presentation of the exponential families, of the mixtures of such distributions and how to learn it. We then present algorithms to simplify mixture model, using Kullback-Leibler di...

Solving Factored MDPs with Exponential-Family Transition Models
Markov decision processes (MDPs) with discrete and continuous state and action components can be solved efficiently by hybrid approximate linear programming (HALP). The main idea ...
