A video lecture by Kai Puolamäki: In the absence of explicit queries, an alternative is to try to infer users' interests from implicit feedback signals, such as clickstreams or eye tracking. The interests, formulated as an implicit query, can then be used in further searches. We formulate this task as a probabilistic model, which can be interpreted as a kind of transfer learning and meta-learning.

A video lecture by Aapo Hyvärinen: Causal analysis of continuous-valued variables typically uses either autoregressive models or linear Gaussian Bayesian networks with instantaneous effects. Estimation of Gaussian Bayesian networks poses serious identifiability problems, which is why it was recently proposed to use non-Gaussian models. Here, we show how to combine the non-Gaussian instantaneous model with autoregressive models.

The AVEA project at the Helsinki Institute for Information Technology HIIT organized an open research seminar on so-called virtual economies. We focused on the following question: "Why should economists and social scientists be interested in virtual economies?" Through discussion and presentations by academic researchers and industry representatives, we investigated the potential of conducting quantitative research on virtual economies that is of interest to mainstream, "serious" researchers.
