Combining probability and first-order logic has been the subject of intensive research during the last ten years. The most well-known formalisms combining probability and some sub...
Alternating Gibbs sampling is the most common scheme used for sampling from Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBM), a crucial component in deep architectures such as Deep Belief Netw...

We propose a method for discovering the dependency relationships between the topics of documents shared in social networks using the latent social interactions, attempting to answ...
We propose a novel way to induce a random field from an energy function on discrete labels. It amounts to locally injecting noise to the energy potentials, followed by finding t...
