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...
— Most research in machine learning focuses on scenarios in which a learner faces a single learning task, independently of other learning tasks or prior knowledge. In reality, ho...
We present a generalization of the nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), where a multilayer generative network with nonnegative weights is used to approximate the observed nonne...
Identifying or matching the surface color of a moving object in surveillance video is critical for achieving reliable object-tracking and searching. Traditional color models provi...

Hidden Markov models assume that observations in time series data stem from some hidden process that can be compactly represented as a Markov chain. We generalize this model by as...
