We demonstrate qualitatively and quantitatively that our proposed approach is able tomodel the appearance ofindividual strokes,aswell asthe compositional structure oflargerdiagram drawings.

However, existing ways of implementing the ME-HP for such data are either inflexible, as the exogenous (background) rate functions are typically constant and the endogenous (excitation) rate functions are specified parametrically, or inefficient, as inference usually relies on Markov chain Monte Carlo methods with high computational costs.

Stochastic block models characterize observed network relationships via latent community memberships. In large social networks, we expect entities to participate in multiple communities, and the number of communities to grow with the network size. We introduce a new model for these phenomena, the hierarchical Dirichlet process relational model, which allows nodes to have mixed membership in an unbounded set of communities. To allow scalable learning, we derive an online stochastic variational inference algorithm. Focusing on assortative models of undirected networks, we also propose an efficient structured mean field variational bound, and online methods for automatically pruning unused communities. Compared to state-of-the-art online learning methods for parametric relational models, we show significantly improved perplexity and link prediction accuracy for sparse networks with tens of thousands of nodes.

By tailoring a multi-dimensional space (or multi-dimensional array) into a number of rectangular regions, the partition model can fit data using these "blocks" such that the data within each block

The two parts share the latent variables.

We propose a probabilistic framework for modelling and exploring the latent structure of relational data. Given feature information for the nodes in a network, the scalable deep generative relational model (SDREM) builds a deep network architecture that can approximate potential nonlinear mappings between nodes' feature information and the nodes' latent representations. Our contribution is two-fold: (1) We incorporate high-order neighbourhood structure information to generate the latent representations at each node, which vary smoothly over the network.
