Hierarchical maximum entropy density estimation
We study the problem of simultaneously estimating several densities where the datasets are organized into overlapping groups, such as a hierarchy. For this problem, we propose a m...

Asymptotic Bayesian generalization error when training and test distributions are different
In supervised learning, we commonly assume that training and test data are sampled from the same distribution. However, this assumption can be violated in practice and then standa...

A permutation-augmented sampler for DP mixture models
We introduce a new inference algorithm for Dirichlet process mixture models. While Gibbs sampling and variational methods focus on local moves, the new algorithm makes more global...

Efficiently computing minimax expected-size confidence regions
Given observed data and a collection of parameterized candidate models, a 1- confidence region in parameter space provides useful insight as to those models which are a good fit t...

A dependence maximization view of clustering
We propose a family of clustering algorithms based on the maximization of dependence between the input variables and their cluster labels, as expressed by the Hilbert-Schmidt Inde...

An empirical evaluation of deep architectures on problems with many factors of variation
Recently, several learning algorithms relying on models with deep architectures have been proposed. Though they have demonstrated impressive performance, to date, they have only b...

Pegasos: Primal Estimated sub-GrAdient SOlver for SVM
We describe and analyze a simple and effective iterative algorithm for solving the optimization problem cast by Support Vector Machines (SVM). Our method alternates between stocha...
