We present a fully probabilistic stick-figure model that uses a nonparametric Bayesian distribution over trees for its structure prior. Sticks are represented by nodes in a tree i...

For a model of molecular evolution to be useful for phylogenetic inference, the topology of evolutionary trees must be identifiable. That is, from a joint distribution the model p...
Abstract. Ensemble methods are popular learning methods that usually increase the predictive accuracy of a classifier though at the cost of interpretability and insight in the deci...
A notable gap in research on statistical dependency parsing is a proper conditional probability distribution over nonprojective dependency trees for a given sentence. We exploit t...
We model the overlay using linear capacity constraints, which accurately and succinctly capture overlay link correlations. We show that finding a maximum-bandwidth multicast tree...
