چکیده

This paper presents a generative model of score distribution, focused on the case of information filtering, where sampling of training data is not random. Parameters of the model were estimated using the Maximum Likelihood Principle, conjugate priors, and conjugate gradient descent. Experiments on TREC8 and TREC9 Filtering Track datasets are reported. Our method obtained significant improvements compared to a baseline.

Exploring Social Influence for Recommendation - A Probabilistic Generative Model Approach

In this paper, we propose a probabilistic generative model, called unified model, which naturally unifies the ideas of social influence, collaborative filtering and content-based methods for item recommendation. To address the issue of hidden social influence, we devise new algorithms to learn the model parameters of our proposal based on expectation maximization (EM). In addition to a single-m...

A Generative Product-of-Filters Model of Audio

We propose the product-of-filters (PoF) model, a generative model that decomposes audio spectra as sparse linear combinations of “filters” in the log-spectral domain. PoF makes similar assumptions to those used in the classic homomorphic filtering approach to signal processing, but replaces decompositions built of basic signal processing operations with a learned decomposition based on statisti...

Modeling User Rating Profiles For Collaborative Filtering

In this paper we present a generative latent variable model for rating-based collaborative filtering called the User Rating Profile model (URP). The generative process which underlies URP is designed to produce complete user rating profiles, an assignment of one rating to each item for each user. Our model represents each user as a mixture of user attitudes, and the mixing proportions are distr...

Improvement of generative adversarial networks for automatic text-to-image generation

This research is related to the use of deep learning tools and image processing technology in the automatic generation of images from text. Previous researches have used one sentence to produce images. In this research, a memory-based hierarchical model is presented that uses three different descriptions that are presented in the form of sentences to produce and improve the image. The proposed ...

Voice-based Age and Gender Recognition using Training Generative Sparse Model

Abstract: Gender recognition and age detection are important problems in telephone speech processing to investigate the identity of an individual using voice characteristics. In this paper a new gender and age recognition system is introduced based on generative incoherent models learned using sparse non-negative matrix factorization and atom correction post-processing method. Similar to genera...
