Hierarchical Topic Models and the Nested Chinese Restaurant Process
We address the problem of learning topic hierarchies from data. The model selection problem in this domain is daunting—which of the large collection of possible trees to use? We...

Degeneracy in model selection for SVMs with radial Gaussian kernel
We consider the model selection problem for support vector machines applied to binary classification. As the data generating process is unknown, we have to rely on heuristics as mo...

Model Selection in Kernel Methods Based on a Spectral Analysis of Label Information
Abstract. We propose a novel method for addressing the model selection problem in the context of kernel methods. In contrast to existing methods which rely on hold-out testing or t...

Tracking groups of people with a multi-model hypothesis tracker
Abstract— People in densely populated environments typically form groups that split and merge. In this paper we track groups of people so as to reflect this formation process an...

Optimized expected information gain for nonlinear dynamical systems
This paper addresses the problem of active model selection for nonlinear dynamical systems. We propose a novel learning approach that selects the most informative subset of time-d...
