We present a novel algorithm for agglomerative hierarchical clustering based on evaluating marginal likelihoods of a probabilistic model. This algorithm has several advantages ove...
Many ranking models have been proposed in information retrieval, and recently machine learning techniques have also been applied to ranking model construction. Most of the existin...

Inhomogeneous Gibbs model (IGM) [4] is an effective maximum entropy model in characterizing complex highdimensional distributions. However, its training process is so slow that th...
Schema learning is a way to discover probabilistic, constructivist, predictive action models (schemas) from experience. It includes methods for finding and using hidden state to m...
Many low-level vision algorithms assume a prior probability over images, and there has been great interest in trying to learn this prior from examples. Since images are very non G...
