SUMMARY:Inference in Models with Latent Hierarchies - Christian Steinrueck
 en (University of Cambridge)
DTSTART:20090608T100000Z
DTEND:20090608T110000Z
UID:TALK18332@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Carl Scheffler
DESCRIPTION:Many naturally occuring datasets have underlying hierarchical 
 structures\, motivating the desire for probabilistic models to capture and
  exploit these properties.\nIn this talk\, I will present three things:\n#
  a model which uses multiple concurrent hierarchies as its latent data str
 ucture\,\n# a method of making MCMC inference for such models much faster\
 ,\n# plots showing the predictive performance of this model
