The inclusion of document length factors has been a major topic in the development of retrieval models. We believe that current models can be further improved by more refined est...
In the Bayesian mixture modeling framework it is possible to infer the necessary number of components to model the data and therefore it is unnecessary to explicitly restrict the n...
We define the crouching Dirichlet, hidden Markov model (CDHMM), an HMM for partof-speech tagging which draws state prior distributions for each local document context. This simple...
We apply nonparametric hierarchical Bayesian modelling to relational learning. In a hierarchical Bayesian approach, model parameters can be "personalized", i.e., owned b...

Nonparametric Bayesian mixture models, in particular Dirichlet process (DP) mixture models, have shown great promise for density estimation and data clustering. Given the size of ...
