Learning the Structure of Deep Sparse Graphical Models

چکیده
Deep belief networks are a powerful way to model complex probability distributions. However, it is difficult to learn the structure of a belief network, particularly one with hidden units. The Indian buffet process has been used as a nonparametric Bayesian prior on the structure of a directed belief network with a single infinitely wide hidden layer. Here, we introduce the cascading Indian buffet process (CIBP), which provides a prior on the structure of a layered, directed belief network that is unbounded in both depth and width, yet allows tractable inference. We use the CIBP prior with the nonlinear Gaussian belief network framework to allow each unit to vary its behavior between discrete and continuous representations. We use Markov chain Monte Carlo for inference in this model and explore the structures learned on image data.

Learning Sparse Deep Feedforward Networks via Tree Skeleton Expansion
Despite the popularity of deep learning, structure learning for deep models remains a relatively under-explored area. In contrast, structure learning has been studied extensively for probabilistic graphical models (PGMs). In particular, an efficient algorithm has been developed for learning a class of tree-structured PGMs called hierarchical latent tree models (HLTMs), where there is a layer of...

متن کاملOn Sparse Gaussian Chain Graph Models
In this paper, we address the problem of learning the structure of Gaussian chain graph models in a high-dimensional space. Chain graph models are generalizations of undirected and directed graphical models that contain a mixed set of directed and undirected edges. While the problem of sparse structure learning has been studied extensively for Gaussian graphical models and more recently for con...
متن کاملLearning Undirected Graphical Models with Structure Penalty
In undirected graphical models, learning the graph structure and learning the functions that relate the predictive variables (features) to the responses given the structure are two topics that have been widely investigated in machine learning and statistics. Learning graphical models in two stages will have problems because graph structure may change after considering the features. The main con...
