Randomized Optimum Models for Structured Prediction
One approach to modeling structured discrete data is to describe the probability of states via an energy function and Gibbs distribution. A recurring difficulty in these models is...

Hierarchical Latent Dictionaries for Models of Brain Activation
In this work, we propose a hierarchical latent dictionary approach to estimate the timevarying mean and covariance of a process for which we have only limited noisy samples. We fu...

A Simple Geometric Interpretation of SVM using Stochastic Adversaries
We present a minimax framework for classification that considers stochastic adversarial perturbations to the training data. We show that for binary classification it is equivale...

Sparse Additive Machine
We develop a high dimensional nonparametric classification method named sparse additive machine (SAM), which can be viewed as a functional version of support vector machine (SVM)...

Deep Learning Made Easier by Linear Transformations in Perceptrons
We transform the outputs of each hidden neuron in a multi-layer perceptron network to have zero output and zero slope on average, and use separate shortcut connections to model th...

Markov Logic Mixtures of Gaussian Processes: Towards Machines Reading Regression Data
We propose a novel mixtures of Gaussian processes model in which the gating function is interconnected with a probabilistic logical model, in our case Markov logic networks. In th...

Conditional Likelihood Maximisation: A Unifying Framework for Information Theoretic Feature Selection
We present a unifying framework for information theoretic feature selection, bringing almost two decades of research on heuristic filter criteria under a single theoretical inter...

Graphlet decomposition of a weighted network
We introduce the graphlet decomposition of a weighted network, which encodes a notion of social information based on social structure. We develop a scalable algorithm, which combi...

Bayesian Comparison of Machine Learning Algorithms on Single and Multiple Datasets
We propose a new method for comparing learning algorithms on multiple tasks which is based on a novel non-parametric test that we call the Poisson binomial test. The key aspect of...
