A Spectral Approach for Probabilistic Grammatical Inference on Trees
We focus on the estimation of a probability distribution over a set of trees. We consider here the class of distributions computed by weighted automata - a strict generalization of...

A Bayesian Multiresolution Independence Test for Continuous Variables
In this paper we present a method of computing the posterior probability of conditional independence of two or more continuous variables from data, examined at several resolutions...
