• Latent variable models Inferring latent variables from observations. How good are you at ping pong?
• Markov models Sentences are chains. We complete each others' sandwiches.
• Hidden Markov models Sentences are fences. Is "man" a verb or a noun?
• Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars Sentences are trees. Who had the binoculars?
• Program induction Hallucinating programs from data.
• Computer vision as inverse graphics Compression on steroids.
