Sound Probabilistic Inference via Guide Types
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
For Bayesian inference to be sound, guide programs must be compatible with model programs. ...
Modern languages support programmable inference, which allows users to customize inference algorithms by incorporating guide programs to improve inference performance. ...
Soundness of Inference Algorithms We now describe how guide types can help us reason about inference algorithms. Importance sampling (IS). ...

Personalizing video recorders using multimedia processing and integration
2001
Proceedings of the ninth ACM international conference on Multimedia - MULTIMEDIA '01
The retrieval module relies on users' personal preferences to deliver both full programs and video segments of interest. ...
We tested retrieval concepts with real users and discovered that they see more value in segmenting non-narrative programs (e.g. news) than narrative programs (e.g. movies). ...
The Bayesian Engine performed a bi-partite inference between financial news and talk shows on these sub-program units. ...

Doubly Bayesian Optimization
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
Probabilistic programming systems enable users to encode model structure and naturally reason about uncertainties, which can be leveraged towards improved Bayesian optimization (BO) methods. ...
Not only can we utilize programmable structure to incorporate domain knowledge to aid optimization, but dealing with uncertainties and implementing advanced BO techniques become trivial, crucial for use ...
We use the negative log of the EC50 for numerical reasons. ...

The Lumiere Project: Bayesian User Modeling for Inferring the Goals and Needs of Software Users
[article]
2013
arXiv
pre-print
We review work on Bayesian user models that can be employed to infer a users needs by considering a user's background, actions, and queries. ...
Several problems were tackled in Lumiere research, including (1) the construction of Bayesian models for reasoning about the time-varying goals of computer users from their observed actions and queries ...
We discussed our studies with human subjects to elucidate sets of distinctions that are useful for making inferences about a user's goals and needs and our construction of Bayesian user models. ...
