Variational Bayes Estimation of Mixing Coefficients
We investigate theoretically some properties of variational Bayes approximations based on estimating the mixing coefficients of known densities. We show that, with probability 1 a...

Efficient Communication by Breathing
The arithmetic-coding-based communication system, Dasher, can be driven by a one-dimensional continuous signal. A belt-mounted breath-mouse, delivering a signal related to lung vol...

Understanding Gaussian Process Regression Using the Equivalent Kernel
The equivalent kernel [1] is a way of understanding how Gaussian process regression works for large sample sizes based on a continuum limit. In this paper we show how to approximat...

Can Gaussian Process Regression Be Made Robust Against Model Mismatch?
Learning curves for Gaussian process (GP) regression can be strongly affected by a mismatch between the ‘student’ model and the ‘teacher’ (true data generation process), e...

Transformations of Gaussian Process Priors
Abstract. Gaussian process prior systems generally consist of noisy measurements of samples of the putatively Gaussian process of interest, where the samples serve to constrain the...

Extensions of the Informative Vector Machine
The informative vector machine (IVM) is a practical method for Gaussian process regression and classification. The IVM produces a sparse approximation to a Gaussian process by com...

Redundant Bit Vectors for Quickly Searching High-Dimensional Regions
Applications such as audio fingerprinting require search in high dimensions: find an item in a database that is similar to a query. An important property of this search task is t...
