Bayesian sequence prediction is a simple technique for predicting future symbols sampled from an unknown measure on infinite sequences over a countable alphabet. While strong bounds on the expected cumulative error are known, there are only…

The relationship between the Bayesian approach and the minimum description length approach is established. We sharpen and clarify the general modeling principles MDL and MML, abstracted as the ideal MDL principle and defined from Bayes's…

One of the central problems in the classification of individual test sequences (e.g. genetic analysis), is that of checking for the similarity of sample test sequences as compared with a set of much longer training sequences. This is done…

Positive dependencies have been compared in the literature under rather strong assumptions such as equality of conditional distributions, exchangeability, or stationarity. We establish supermodular ordering results for distributions that…

In this paper, we consider the well known problem of estimating a density function under qualitative assumptions. More precisely, we estimate monotone non increasing densities in a Bayesian setting and derive concentration rate for the…

Estimating future events is a difficult task. Unlike humans, machine learning approaches are not regularized by a natural understanding of physics. In the wild, a plausible succession of events is governed by the rules of causality, which…
