It seems clear that both age and gender have an e ect on someone’s survival, how do we come up with a model that will let us explore this relationship? Even if we set Died to 0 and Survived to 1, this isn’t something we can transform our way out of - we need something more. One way to think about the problem - we can treat Survived and Died as

More on Multivariate Gaussians - Stanford University

Multivariate Gaussians turn out to be extremely handy in practice due to the following facts: • Fact #1: If you know the mean µ and covariance matrix Σ of a Gaussian random variable x, you can write down the probability density function for x directly.

An Introduction to Conditional Random Fields

CRFs are essentially a way of combining the advantages of dis-criminative classification and graphical modeling, combining the ability to compactly model multivariate outputs y with the ability to leverage a large number of input features x for prediction.
