Abstract. The Bayesian approach to machine learning amounts to inferring posterior distributions of random variables from a probabilistic model of how the variables are related (th...
We present sparse topical coding (STC), a non-probabilistic formulation of topic models for discovering latent representations of large collections of data. Unlike probabilistic t...
In this paper we present a learning based method for vessel segmentation in angiographic videos. Vessel Segmentation is an important task in medical imaging and has been investiga...
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...
We propose a novel probabilistic method based on the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to learn the structure of a Latent Variable Model (LVM) for query language modeling. In the proposed...
