Predictive user models often require a phase of effortful supervised training where cases are tagged with labels that represent the status of unobservable variables. We formulate a...
Learning temporal causal graph structures from multivariate time-series data reveals important dependency relationships between current observations and histories, and provides a ...

When a large amount of data are missing, or when multiple hidden nodes exist, learning parameters in Bayesian networks (BNs) becomes extremely difficult. This paper presents a lea...
We present a new unsupervised algorithm for training structured predictors that is discriminative, convex, and avoids the use of EM. The idea is to formulate an unsupervised versi...

We derive an efficient learning algorithm for model-based source separation for use on single channel speech mixtures where the precise source characteristics are not known a pri...
