Learning a Continuous Hidden Variable Model for Binary Data
A directed generative model for binary data using a small number of hidden continuous units is investigated. A clipping nonlinearity distinguishes the model from conventional prin...

Continuous Sigmoidal Belief Networks Trained using Slice Sampling
Real-valued random hidden variables can be useful for modelling latent structure that explains correlations among observed variables. I propose a simple unit that adds zero-mean G...

New d-separation identification results for learning continuous latent variable models
Learning the structure of graphical models is an important task, but one of considerable difficulty when latent variables are involved. Because conditional independences using hid...
