High-temperature Expansions for Learning Models of Nonnegative Data
Recent work has exploited boundedness of data in the unsupervised learning of new types of generative model. For nonnegative data it was recently shown that the maximum-entropy ge...

Estimating Markov Random Field Potentials for Natural Images
Markov Random Field (MRF) models with potentials learned from the data have recently received attention for learning the low-level structure of natural images. A MRF provides a pri...

Dynamic maintenance of molecular surfaces under conformational changes
We present an efficient algorithm for maintaining the boundary and surface area of protein molecules as they undergo conformational changes. We also describe a robust implementati...
