Leveraging Node Attributes for Incomplete Relational Data
Relational data are usually highly incomplete in practice, which inspires us
to leverage side information to improve the performance of community detection
and link prediction. This paper presents a Bayesian probabilistic approach that
incorporates various kinds of node attributes encoded in binary form in
relational models with Poisson likelihood. Our method works flexibly with both
directed and undirected relational networks. The inference can be done by
efficient Gibbs sampling which leverages sparsity of both networks and node
attributes. Extensive experiments show that our models achieve the
state-of-the-art link prediction results, especially with highly incomplete
relational data.Comment: Appearing in ICML 201
A Survey on Bayesian Deep Learning
A comprehensive artificial intelligence system needs to not only perceive the
environment with different `senses' (e.g., seeing and hearing) but also infer
the world's conditional (or even causal) relations and corresponding
uncertainty. The past decade has seen major advances in many perception tasks
such as visual object recognition and speech recognition using deep learning
models. For higher-level inference, however, probabilistic graphical models
with their Bayesian nature are still more powerful and flexible. In recent
years, Bayesian deep learning has emerged as a unified probabilistic framework
to tightly integrate deep learning and Bayesian models. In this general
framework, the perception of text or images using deep learning can boost the
performance of higher-level inference and in turn, the feedback from the
inference process is able to enhance the perception of text or images. This
survey provides a comprehensive introduction to Bayesian deep learning and
reviews its recent applications on recommender systems, topic models, control,
etc. Besides, we also discuss the relationship and differences between Bayesian
deep learning and other related topics such as Bayesian treatment of neural
networks.Comment: To appear in ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR) 202
