Probabilistic inference in graphical models is a prevalent task in statistics and artificial intelligence. The ability to perform this inference task efficiently is critical in l...
This paper presents recursive cavity modeling--a principled, tractable approach to approximate, near-optimal inference for large Gauss-Markov random fields. The main idea is to su...
three different levels of abstraction: detailed models including ctivity dynamics, weight dynamics that abstract from the neural activity dynamics by an adiabatic approximation, an...
This paper describes a class ofprobabilistic approximation algorithms based on bucket elimination which o er adjustable levels of accuracy ande ciency. We analyzethe approximation...
Personalization is a powerful mechanism that helps users to cope with the abundance of information on the Web. Database query personalization achieves this by dynamically construc...
