We present BAYESUM (for "Bayesian summarization"), a model for sentence extraction in query-focused summarization. BAYESUM leverages the common case in which multiple do...
We study the learnability of Threshold functions with bounded weights using membership queries only. We show that the class Ct of Threshold functions with positive integer weights...

We explore a general Bayesian active learning setting, in which the learner can ask arbitrary yes/no questions. We derive upper and lower bounds on the expected number of queries r...
A well-studied problem in fault diagnosis is to identify the set of all good processors in a given set {p1, p2, . . . , pn} of processors via asking some processors pi to test whet...
Similarity-based querying of time series data can be categorized as pattern existence queries and shape match queries. Pattern existence queries find the time series data with ce...
