The Mondrian Process
We describe a novel class of distributions, called Mondrian processes, which can be interpreted as probability distributions over kd-tree data structures. Mondrian processes are m...

An Empirical Analysis of Domain Adaptation Algorithms for Genomic Sequence Analysis
We study the problem of domain transfer for a supervised classification task in mRNA splicing. We consider a number of recent domain transfer methods from machine learning, includ...

Kernel Measures of Independence for non-iid Data
Many machine learning algorithms can be formulated in the framework of statistical independence such as the Hilbert Schmidt Independence Criterion. In this paper, we extend this c...

Deflation Methods for Sparse PCA
In analogy to the PCA setting, the sparse PCA problem is often solved by iteratively alternating between two subtasks: cardinality-constrained rank-one variance maximization and m...

Analyzing human feature learning as nonparametric Bayesian inference
Almost all successful machine learning algorithms and cognitive models require powerful representations capturing the features that are relevant to a particular problem. We draw o...
