Integrating and Ranking Uncertain Scientific Data
Mediator-based data integration systems resolve exploratory queries by joining data elements across sources. In the presence of uncertainties, such multiple expansions can quickly ...

Unsupervised Variational Bayesian Learning of Nonlinear Models
In this paper we present a framework for using multi-layer perceptron (MLP) networks in nonlinear generative models trained by variational Bayesian learning. The nonlinearity is h...

Bayesian Networks Implementation of the Dempster Shafer Theory to Model Reliability Uncertainty
In many reliability studies based on data, reliability engineers face incompleteness and incoherency problems in the data. Probabilistic tools badly handle these kinds of problems...

Conversation as Action Under Uncertainty
Conversations abound with uncertainties of various kinds. Treating conversation as inference and decision making under uncertainty, we propose a task independent, multimodal archi...
