Users of topic modeling methods often have knowledge about the composition of words that should have high or low probability in various topics. We incorporate such domain knowledg...
Variational inference methods, including mean field methods and loopy belief propagation, have been widely used for approximate probabilistic inference in graphical models. While ...
The hierarchical Dirichlet process (HDP) is a Bayesian nonparametric mixed membership model--each data point is modeled with a collection of components of different proportions. T...

We present an extension to the Mixture of Experts (ME) model, where the individual experts are Gaussian Process (GP) regression models. Using an input-dependent adaptation of the ...
The dynamic hierarchical Dirichlet process (dHDP) is developed to model the timeevolving statistical properties of sequential data sets. The data collected at any time point are r...
