Probabilistic Latent Tensor Factorization (PLTF) is a recently proposed probabilistic framework for modelling multi-way data. Not only the common tensor factorization models but also any arbitrary tensor factorization structure can be realized by the PLTF framework. This paper presents full Bayesian inference via variational Bayes that facilitates more powerful modelling and allows more sophisticated inference on the PLTF framework. We illustrate our approach on model order selection and link prediction.

Probabilistic approaches for tensor factorization aim to extract meaningful structure from incomplete data by postulating low rank constraints. Recently, variational Bayesian (VB) inference techniques have successfully been applied to large scale mod
els. This paper presents full Bayesian inference via VB on both single and coupled tensor factorization models. Our method can be run even for very large models and is easily implemented. It exhibits better prediction performance than existing approaches based on maximum likelihood on several real-world datasets for missing link prediction problem.
Given a reference model that includes all the available variables, projection predictive inference replaces its posterior with a constrained projection including only a subset of all variables. We extend projection predictive inference to enable comp
utationally efficient variable and structure selection in models outside the exponential family. By adopting a latent space projection predictive perspective we are able to: 1) propose a unified and general framework to do variable selection in complex models while fully honouring the original model structure, 2) properly identify relevant structure and retain posterior uncertainties from the original model, and 3) provide an improved approach also for non-Gaussian models in the exponential family. We demonstrate the superior performance of our approach by thoroughly testing and comparing it against popular variable selection approaches in a wide range of settings, including realistic data sets. Our results show that our approach successfully recovers relevant terms and model structure in complex models, selecting less variables than competing approaches for realistic datasets.
Archetypal analysis is an unsupervised learning method for exploratory data analysis. One major challenge that limits the applicability of archetypal analysis in practice is the inherent computational complexity of the existing algorithms. In this pa
per, we provide a novel approximation approach to partially address this issue. Utilizing probabilistic ideas from high-dimensional geometry, we introduce two preprocessing techniques to reduce the dimension and representation cardinality of the data, respectively. We prove that, provided the data is approximately embedded in a low-dimensional linear subspace and the convex hull of the corresponding representations is well approximated by a polytope with a few vertices, our method can effectively reduce the scaling of archetypal analysis. Moreover, the solution of the reduced problem is near-optimal in terms of prediction errors. Our approach can be combined with other acceleration techniques to further mitigate the intrinsic complexity of archetypal analysis. We demonstrate the usefulness of our results by applying our method to summarize several moderately large-scale datasets.
Latent Factor Model (LFM) is one of the most successful methods for Collaborative filtering (CF) in the recommendation system, in which both users and items are projected into a joint latent factor space. Base on matrix factorization applied usually
in pattern recognition, LFM models user-item interactions as inner products of factor vectors of user and item in that space and can be efficiently solved by least square methods with optimal estimation. However, such optimal estimation methods are prone to overfitting due to the extreme sparsity of user-item interactions. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian treatment for LFM, named Bayesian Latent Factor Model (BLFM). Based on observed user-item interactions, we build a probabilistic factor model in which the regularization is introduced via placing prior constraint on latent factors, and the likelihood function is established over observations and parameters. Then we draw samples of latent factors from the posterior distribution with Variational Inference (VI) to predict expected value. We further make an extension to BLFM, called BLFMBias, incorporating user-dependent and item-dependent biases into the model for enhancing performance. Extensive experiments on the movie rating dataset show the effectiveness of our proposed models by compared with several strong baselines.
An ordinary differential equation (ODE) model, whose regression curves are a set of solution curves for some ODEs, poses a challenge in parameter estimation. The challenge, due to the frequent absence of analytic solutions and the complicated likelih
ood surface, tends to be more severe especially for larger models with many parameters and variables. Yang and Lee (2021) proposed a state-space model with variational Bayes (SSVB) for ODE, capable of fast and stable estimation in somewhat large ODE models. The method has shown excellent performance in parameter estimation but has a weakness of underestimation of the posterior covariance, which originates from the mean-field variational method. This paper proposes a way to overcome the weakness by using the Laplace approximation. In numerical experiments, the covariance modified by the Laplace approximation showed a high degree of improvement when checked against the covariances obtained by a standard Markov chain Monte Carlo method. With the improved covariance estimation, the SSVB renders fairly accurate posterior approximations.
