Bayesian Multi-Task Reinforcement Learning
We consider the problem of multi-task reinforcement learning where the learner is provided with a set of tasks, for which only a small number of samples can be generated for any g...

Boosting margin based distance functions for clustering
The performance of graph based clustering methods critically depends on the quality of the distance function, used to compute similarities between pairs of neighboring nodes. In t...

Marked Point Processes for Crowd Counting
A Bayesian marked point process (MPP) model is developed to detect and count people in crowded scenes. The model couples a spatial stochastic process governing number and placem...

Convex Point Estimation using Undirected Bayesian Transfer Hierarchies
When related learning tasks are naturally arranged in a hierarchy, an appealing approach for coping with scarcity of instances is that of transfer learning using a hierarchical Ba...
