Direct Importance Estimation with Model Selection and Its Application to Covariate Shift Adaptation
A situation where training and test samples follow different input distributions is called covariate shift. Under covariate shift, standard learning methods such as maximum likeli...

Congruence between model and human attention reveals unique signatures of critical visual events
Current computational models of bottom-up and top-down components of attention are predictive of eye movements across a range of stimuli and of simple, fixed visual tasks (such a...

The Generalized FITC Approximation
We present an efficient generalization of the sparse pseudo-input Gaussian process (SPGP) model developed by Snelson and Ghahramani [1], applying it to binary classification pro...

Invariant Common Spatial Patterns: Alleviating Nonstationarities in Brain-Computer Interfacing
Brain-Computer Interfaces can suffer from a large variance of the subject conditions within and across sessions. For example vigilance fluctuations in the individual, variable ta...

Unsupervised Feature Selection for Accurate Recommendation of High-Dimensional Image Data
Content-based image suggestion (CBIS) targets the recommendation of products based on user preferences on the visual content of images. In this paper, we motivate both feature sel...

Inferring Neural Firing Rates from Spike Trains Using Gaussian Processes
Neural spike trains present challenges to analytical efforts due to their noisy, spiking nature. Many studies of neuroscientific and neural prosthetic importance rely on a smooth...
