From Topic Models to Semi-supervised Learning: Biasing Mixed-Membership Models to Exploit Topic-Indicative Features in Entity Clustering
We present methods to introduce different forms of supervision into mixed-membership latent variable models. Firstly, we introduce a technique to bias the models to exploit topic-indicative features, i.e. features which are apriori known to be good indicators of the latent topics that generated them. Next, we present methods to modify the Gibbs sampler used for approximate inference in such mod...
متن کاملEntropic Regularization of Mixed-membership Network Models using Pseudo-observations
Mixed-membership network models permit a node in a graph to take on different latent roles in different interactions. However, while mixed-membership block models often do out-perform classical network models, the actual degree of mixed-membership in many graphs is small, with nodes usually taking on only a handful of many possible roles. We thus present a novel slightly mixed membership stocha...

متن کاملHierarchical Bayesian Mixed-Membership Models and Latent Pattern Discovery
Hierarchical Bayesian methods expanded markedly with the introduction of MCMC computation in the 1980s, and this was followed by the explosive growth of machine learning tools involving latent structure for clustering and classification. Nonetheless, model choice remains a major methodological issue, largely because competing models used in machine learning often have different parameterization...
متن کاملSpecifying Latent Structure Characteristics in Mixed-membership Models
Latent variable mixture models provide an important tool for the analysis of text and relational data. They encompass techniques like topic models for language modeling, and mixed-membership block models, which model relational data that are represented as graphs. A central characteristic of mixed-membership models, is their ability to uncover latent structure from large data in a fully unsuper...
