We study the computational and sample complexity of parameter and structure learning in graphical models. Our main result shows that the class of factor graphs with bounded degree...
Within-network regression addresses the task of regression in partially labeled networked data where labels are sparse and continuous. Data for inference consist of entities associ...
This paper presents and evaluates sequential instance-based learning (SIBL), an approach to action selection based upon data gleaned from prior problem solving experiences. SIBL le...
In spite of the popularity of probabilistic mixture models for latent structure discovery from data, mixture models do not have a natural mechanism for handling sparsity, where ea...
This paper studies two types of spatial relationships that can be learned from training examples for object recognition. The first one employs deformable relationships between obj...
