Bayesian recurrent state space model for rs-fMRI

Arunesh Mittal, Scott Linderman, John Paisley +1

We propose a hierarchical Bayesian recurrent state space model for modeling switching network connectivity in resting state fMRI data. Our model allows us to uncover shared network…

Point process models for sequence detection in high-dimensional neural spike trains

Alex H. Williams, Anthony Degleris, Yixin Wang +1

Sparse sequences of neural spikes are posited to underlie aspects of working memory, motor production, and learning. Discovering these sequences in an unsupervised manner is a long…

Poisson-Randomized Gamma Dynamical Systems

Aaron Schein, Scott W. Linderman, Mingyuan Zhou +2

This paper presents the Poisson-randomized gamma dynamical system (PRGDS), a model for sequentially observed count tensors that encodes a strong inductive bias toward sparsity and…

Tree-Structured Recurrent Switching Linear Dynamical Systems for Multi-Scale Modeling

Josue Nassar, Scott W. Linderman, Monica Bugallo +1

Many real-world systems studied are governed by complex, nonlinear dynamics. By modeling these dynamics, we can gain insight into how these systems work, make predictions about how…

Learning Latent Permutations with Gumbel-Sinkhorn Networks

Gonzalo Mena, David Belanger, Scott Linderman +1

Permutations and matchings are core building blocks in a variety of latent variable models, as they allow us to align, canonicalize, and sort data. Learning in such models is diffi…

Reparameterizing the Birkhoff Polytope for Variational Permutation Inference

Scott W. Linderman, Gonzalo E. Mena, Hal Cooper +2

Many matching, tracking, sorting, and ranking problems require probabilistic reasoning about possible permutations, a set that grows factorially with dimension. Combinatorial optim…
