Modeling relationship strength in online social networks
Previous work analyzing social networks has mainly focused on binary friendship relations. However, in online social networks the low cost of link formation can lead to networks w...

The multiple multiplicative factor model for collaborative filtering
We describe a class of causal, discrete latent variable models called Multiple Multiplicative Factor models (MMFs). A data vector is represented in the latent space as a vector of...

New d-separation identification results for learning continuous latent variable models
Learning the structure of graphical models is an important task, but one of considerable difficulty when latent variables are involved. Because conditional independences using hid...

Bayesian learning of measurement and structural models
We present a Bayesian search algorithm for learning the structure of latent variable models of continuous variables. We stress the importance of applying search operators designed...

Discriminative Gaussian process latent variable model for classification
Supervised learning is difficult with high dimensional input spaces and very small training sets, but accurate classification may be possible if the data lie on a low-dimensional ...

Non-linear Bayesian Image Modelling
In recent years several techniques have been proposed for modelling the low-dimensional manifolds, or `subspaces', of natural images. Examples include principal component anal...

2D Statistical Models of Facial Expressions for Realistic 3D Avatar Animation
We address the issue of modelling facial expressions for realistic 3D avatar animation. We introduce a hierarchical decomposition of a human face into different components and mod...
