In this paper, we present the use of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods to attack the classical ciphers. We use frequency analysis as our basic tool. First we investigate the...
Mark-recapture models have for many years been used to estimate the unknown sizes of animal and bird populations. In this article we adapt a finite mixture mark-recapture model i...
In the database community, work on information extraction (IE) has centered on two themes: how to effectively manage IE tasks, and how to manage the uncertainties that arise in th...

In simulation modeling and analysis, there are two situations where there is uncertainty about the number of parameters needed to specify a model. The first is in input modeling w...
We propose a new unsupervised learning technique for extracting information about authors and topics from large text collections. We model documents as if they were generated by a...
