Fast Bayesian Network Structure Search Using Gaussian Processes
In this paper we introduce two novel methods for performing Bayesian network structure search that make use of Gaussian Process regression. Using a relatively small number of samples from the posterior distribution of Bayesian networks, we are able to find an accurate function approximator based on Gaussian Processes. This allows us to remove our dependency on the data during the search and lea...
متن کاملHierarchical Bayesian Modelling with Gaussian Processes
We present a novel method for Gaussian process regression in a hierarchical Bayesian framework. The method is suited for cases where data from separate, but related problem scenarios is available. In the hierarchical framework, kernel matrices on a fixed set of input points (transduction) can be learned from data using a simple and efficient EM algorithm. This does not require a parametric form...
متن کاملNonlinear Modelling and Control using Gaussian Processes
In many scientific disciplines it is often required to make predictions about how a system will behave or to deduce the correct control values to elicit a particular desired response. Efficiently solving both of these tasks relies on the construction of a model capturing the system’s operation. In the most interesting situations, the model needs to capture strongly nonlinear effects and deal wi...
متن کاملBayesian Structured Prediction Using Gaussian Processes
We introduce a conceptually novel structured prediction model, GPstruct, which is kernelized, non-parametric and Bayesian, by design. We motivate the model with respect to existing approaches, among others, conditional random fields (CRFs), maximum margin Markov networks (MN), and structured support vector machines (SVMstruct), which embody only a subset of its properties. We present an inferen...
متن کاملModelling Smooth Paths Using Gaussian Processes
A generative model based on the gaussian mixture model and gaussian processes is presented in this paper. Typical motion paths are learnt and then used for motion prediction using this model. The principal novel aspect of this approach is the modelling of paths using gaussian processes. It allows the representation of smooth trajectories and avoids discretization problems found in most existing...
