Scalable Inference and Learning for High-Level Probabilistic Models
Probabilistic graphical models are pervasive in AI and machine learning. A recent push, however, is towards more high-level representations of uncertainty, such as probabilistic programs, probabilistic databases, and statistical relational models. In this talk, Van Den Broek presents his research on efficient algorithms for high-level probabilistic models, called lifted inference and learning algorithms.
Guy Van den Broeck graduated summa cum laude with a Ph.D. in Computer Science from KU Leuve
