Causal Markov condition for submodular information measures
The causal Markov condition (CMC) is a postulate that links observations to causality. It describes the conditional independences among the observations that are entailed by a cau...

Note on pseudolattices, lattices and submodular linear programs
A pseudolattice L is a poset with lattice-type binary operations. Assuming that the pseudolattice permits a modular representation as a family of subsets of a set U with certain c...

Submodular Dictionary Selection for Sparse Representation
We develop an efficient learning framework to construct signal dictionaries for sparse representation by selecting the dictionary columns from multiple candidate bases. By sparse,...
