Variational Bayesian functional PCA
A Bayesian approach to analyze the modes of variation in a set of curves is suggested. It is based on a generative model thus allowing for noisy and sparse observations of curves....

High-Performance Semi-Supervised Learning using Discriminatively Constrained Generative Models
We develop a semi-supervised learning method that constrains the posterior distribution of latent variables under a generative model to satisfy a rich set of feature expectation c...

Learning Generative Models with the Up-Propagation Algorithm
Up-propagation is an algorithm for inverting and learning neural network generative models. Sensory input is processed by inverting a model that generates patterns from hidden var...

Rate-coded Restricted Boltzmann Machines for Face Recognition
We describe a neurally-inspired, unsupervised learning algorithm that builds a non-linear generative model for pairs of face images from the same individual. Individuals are then ...

High-temperature Expansions for Learning Models of Nonnegative Data
Recent work has exploited boundedness of data in the unsupervised learning of new types of generative model. For nonnegative data it was recently shown that the maximum-entropy ge...

Three Generative, Lexicalised Models for Statistical Parsing
In this paper we first propose a new statistical parsing model, which is a generative model of lexicalised context-free grammar. We then extend the model to include a probabilisti...

Robust Reading: Identification and Tracing of Ambiguous Names
A given entity, representing a person, a location or an organization, may be mentioned in text in multiple, ambiguous ways. Understanding natural language requires identifying whe...

Incremental Parsing with the Perceptron Algorithm
This paper describes an incremental parsing approach where parameters are estimated using a variant of the perceptron algorithm. A beam-search algorithm is used during both traini...

Combined discriminative and generative articulated pose and non-rigid shape estimation
Estimation of three-dimensional articulated human pose and motion from images is a central problem in computer vision. Much of the previous work has been limited by the use of cru...
