Order Parameters for Minimax Entropy Distributions: When Does High Level Knowledge Help?
Many problems in vision can be formulated as Bayesian inference. It is important to determine the accuracy of these inferences and how they depend on the problem domain. In recent...

How to Achieve Minimax Expected Kullback-Leibler Distance from an Unknown Finite Distribution
Abstract. We consider a problem that is related to the “Universal Encoding Problem” from information theory. The basic goal is to find rules that map “partial information”...

Learning locally minimax optimal Bayesian networks
We consider the problem of learning Bayesian network models in a non-informative setting, where the only available information is a set of observational data, and no background kn...
