iTimER learns from reconstruction errors to represent irregularly sampled time series.
problem Learning from irregularly sampled time series with missing data.
method iTimER models reconstruction errors as a proxy for unobserved values, using a mixup strategy and a Wasserstein metric.
result iTimER outperforms state-of-the-art methods in classification, interpolation, and forecasting tasks.
Particle MCMC involves using a particle filter within an MCMC algorithm. For inference of a model which involves an unobserved stochastic process, the standard implementation uses the particle filter to propose new values for the stochastic process, and MCMC moves to propose new values for the parameters. We show how p…
This paper presents a new approach for Gaussian process (GP) regression for large datasets. The approach involves partitioning the regression input domain into multiple local regions with a different local GP model fitted in each region. Unlike existing local partitioned GP approaches, we introduce a technique for patc…

In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised clustering approach exploiting the hidden information that is indirectly introduced through a pseudo classification objective. Specifically, we randomly assign a pseudo parent-class label to each observation which is then modified by applying the domain specific transforma…
