A logic is defined which in addition to propositional calculus contains several types of probabilistic operators which are applied only to propositional formulas. For every s ∈...
Existing template-independent web data extraction approaches adopt highly ineffective decoupled strategies--attempting to do data record detection and attribute labeling in two se...
Theefficiency of algorithmsfor probabilistic inference in Bayesian networks can be improvedby exploiting independenceof causal influence. Thefactorized representation of independe...
Hierarchical models have been extensively studied in various domains. However, existing models assume fixed model structures or incorporate structural uncertainty generatively. In...
In this paper, we address the tasks of detecting, segmenting, parsing, and matching deformable objects. We use a novel probabilistic object model that we call a hierarchical defor...
