Bayesian learning for a class of priors with prescribed marginals
We present Bayesian updating of an imprecise probability measure, represented by a class of precise multidimensional probability measures. Choice and analysis of our class are mot...

Statistical models for partial membership
We present a principled Bayesian framework for modeling partial memberships of data points to clusters. Unlike a standard mixture model which assumes that each data point belongs ...

Natural Conjugate Gradient in Variational Inference
Variational methods for approximate inference in machine learning often adapt a parametric probability distribution to optimize a given objective function. This view is especially ...

Abductive Inference in Probabilistic Logic Programs
ABSTRACT. Action-probabilistic logic programs (ap-programs) are a class of probabilistic logic programs that have been extensively used during the last few years for modeling behav...
