Learning class-discriminative dynamic Bayesian networks
In many domains, a Bayesian network's topological structure is not known a priori and must be inferred from data. This requires a scoring function to measure how well a propo...

Approximate inference by Markov chains on union spaces
A standard method for approximating averages in probabilistic models is to construct a Markov chain in the product space of the random variables with the desired equilibrium distr...

Cube Summing, Approximate Inference with Non-Local Features, and Dynamic Programming without Semirings
We introduce cube summing, a technique that permits dynamic programming algorithms for summing over structures (like the forward and inside algorithms) to be extended with non-loc...

Latent Tree Models and Approximate Inference in Bayesian Networks
We propose a novel method for approximate inference in Bayesian networks (BNs). The idea is to sample data from a BN, learn a latent tree model (LTM) from the data offline, and wh...

Efficient Learning of Deep Boltzmann Machines
We present a new approximate inference algorithm for Deep Boltzmann Machines (DBM's), a generative model with many layers of hidden variables. The algorithm learns a separate...
