Wormholes Improve Contrastive Divergence
In models that define probabilities via energies, maximum likelihood learning typically involves using Markov Chain Monte Carlo to sample from the model’s distribution. If the ...

Using fast weights to improve persistent contrastive divergence
The most commonly used learning algorithm for restricted Boltzmann machines is contrastive divergence which starts a Markov chain at a data point and runs the chain for only a few...

Learning Real-Time MRF Inference for Image Denoising
Many computer vision problems can be formulated in a Bayesian framework with Markov Random Field (MRF) or Conditional Random Field (CRF) priors. Usually, the model assumes that ...

On the Spatial Statistics of Optical Flow
We develop a method for learning the spatial statistics of optical flow fields from a novel training database. Training flow fields are constructed using range images of natur...
