The scores returned by support vector machines are often used as a confidence measures in the classification of new examples. However, there is no theoretical argument sustaining ...
We introduce a Bayesian model, BayesANIL, that is capable of estimating uncertainties associated with the labeling process. Given a labeled or partially labeled training corpus of...
Bayesian inference methods are commonly applied to the classification of brain Magnetic Resonance images (MRI). We use the Maximum Evidence (ME) approach to estimate the most prob...
Relevance-based language models operate by estimating the probabilities of observing words in documents relevant (or pseudo relevant) to a topic. However, these models assume that ...
We describe latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), a generative probabilistic model for collections of discrete data such as text corpora. LDA is a three-level hierarchical Bayesian m...
