Carl Smith : March 22

This week in group meeting I will be presenting a somewhat recent paper from Josh Tenenbaum's group entitled "Modelling Relational Data using Bayesian Clustered Tensor Factorization", in which a model for relational data is proposed and explored and argued to be a happy compromise of the pros and cons of clustering methods and factorization models. I plan to present the model itself, some issues it addresses, and some of the results described in the paper.
