Task-Oriented Web User Modeling for Recommendation
Abstract. We propose an approach for modeling the navigational behavior of Web users based on task-level patterns. The discovered “tasks” are characterized probabilistically as...

Naive Bayes models for probability estimation
Naive Bayes models have been widely used for clustering and classification. However, they are seldom used for general probabilistic learning and inference (i.e., for estimating an...

A probabilistic framework for semi-supervised clustering
Unsupervised clustering can be significantly improved using supervision in the form of pairwise constraints, i.e., pairs of instances labeled as belonging to same or different clu...

Multivariate multi-model approach for globally multimodal problems
This paper proposes an estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) aiming at addressing globally multimodal problems, i.e., problems that present several global optima. It can be r...

Layered representations for learning and inferring office activity from multiple sensory channels
We present the use of layered probabilistic representations for modeling human activities, and describe how we use the representation to do sensing, learning, and inference at mul...
