Distributed Inference for Latent Dirichlet Allocation

TL;DR: Using five real-world text corpora, it is shown that distributed learning works very well for LDA models, i.e., perplexity and precision-recall scores for distributed learning are indistinguishable from those obtained with single-processor learning.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cluster Analysis of Typhoon Tracks. Part I: General Properties

TL;DR: In this article, a probabilistic clustering technique based on a regression mixture model was used to describe tropical cyclone trajectories in the western North Pacific, where each component of the mixture model consists of a quadratic regression curve of cyclone position against time.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Adaptive event detection with time-varying poisson processes

TL;DR: The experimental results indicate that the proposed time-varying Poisson model provides a robust and accurate framework for adaptively and autonomously learning how to separate unusual bursty events from traces of normal human activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Statistical topic models for multi-label document classification

TL;DR: The experimental results indicate that probabilistic generative models can achieve competitive multi-label classification performance compared to discriminative methods, and have advantages for datasets with many labels and skewed label frequencies.
