Languages are transmitted from person to person and generation to generation via a process of iterated learning: people learn a language from other people who once learned that la...
We propose a new family of latent variable models called max-margin min-entropy (m3e) models, which define a distribution over the output and the hidden variables conditioned on ...

Given a set of experiments in which varying subsets of observed variables are subject to intervention, we consider the problem of identifiability of causal models exhibiting late...

The principle of maximum entropy provides a powerful framework for statistical models of joint, conditional, and marginal distributions. However, there are many important distribu...
In order to structure a gene network, a score-based approach is often used. A score-based approach, however, is problematic because by assuming a probability distribution, one is ...
