A different kind of hidden structure
•
•Instead
of trying to find a set of independent hidden causes, try to find
factors of a different kind.
•
•Capture structure by
finding constraints that are Frequently Approximately
Satisfied.
•
•Violations of FAS
constraints reduce the probability of a data vector. If a
constraint already has a big violation, violating it more does not
make the data vector much worse (i.e.
assume the distribution of violations
is heavy-tailed.)
