TRAINING ASYMMETRIC KERNELS OF DETERMINANTAL POINT PROCESSES

Abstract:

A method for a determinantal Point Process-based prediction includes obtaining, using a hardware processor, a training data set stored on one or more computer readable storage mediums operably coupled to the hardware processor, training an asymmetric kernel of a Determinantal Point Process (DPP) from a training data set by calculating an inverse matrix of a sum of the asymmetric kernel and an identity matrix in a recursive manner to reduce time and computational resources utilized, and determining a prediction model by training the asymmetric kernel as at least part of a prediction model to make a prediction.
