The basic idea of an algebraic approach to learning Bayesian network (BN) structures is to represent every BN structure by a certain uniquely determined vector, called the standar...
We present an object recognition system that locates an object, identifies its parts, and segments out its contours. A key distinction of our approach is that we use long, salien...
We describe two probabilistic models for unsupervised word-sense disambiguation using parallel corpora. The first model, which we call the Sense model, builds on the work of Diab ...
We introduce a method for learning Bayesian networks that handles the discretization of continuous variables as an integral part of the learning process. The main ingredient in th...
Bayesian networks are directed acyclic graphs that represent dependencies between variables in a probabilistic model. Many time series models, including the hidden Markov models (H...
