We study the problem of projecting a distribution onto (or finding a maximum likelihood distribution among) Markov networks of bounded tree-width. By casting it as the combinatori...
Abstract--We consider statistical data analysis in the interactive setting. In this setting a trusted curator maintains a database of sensitive information about individual partici...
Shape database search is ubiquitous in the world of biometric systems, CAD systems etc. Shape data in these domains is experiencing an explosive growth and usually requires search...

This work proposes an approach to generate weighted random patterns which can maximally excite a circuit during its burn-in testing. The approach is based on a probability model a...
We analyze the structure of random graphs generated by the geographical threshold model. The model is a generalization of random geometric graphs. Nodes are distributed in space, a...
