Generative models

This post describes four projects that share a common theme of enhancing or using generative models, a branch of unsupervised learning techniques in machine learning. In addition to describing our work, this post will tell you a bit more about generative models: what they are, why they are important, and where they might be going.

On Generalized Naive Bayes with Continuous Features

The paper extends the Generalized Naive Bayes (GNB) model to handle continuous explanatory variables. It shows that GNB structure learning depends only on pair copulas of bivariate marginals and can be framed as a matroid, enabling greedy algorithms that minimize Kullback–Leibler divergence. Three model variants are explored—joint Gaussian, Gaussian copula with arbitrary marginals, and fully arbitrary copula and marginals—along with a GNB forest-based model reduction method and empirical comparisons to classical glass‑box classifiers.
