ERACER: a database approach for statistical inference and data cleaning
Real-world databases often contain syntactic and semantic errors, in spite of integrity constraints and other safety measures incorporated into modern DBMSs. We present ERACER, an...

Alphabet SOUP: A Framework for Approximate Energy Minimization
Many problems in computer vision can be modeled using conditional Markov random fields (CRF). Since finding the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution in such models is NP-hard, mu...

Combining Simple Models to Approximate Complex Dynamics
Stochastic tracking of structured models in monolithic state spaces often requires modeling complex distributions that are difficult to represent with either parametric or sample...
