DIRECT (DIviding RECTangles) is a deterministic global optimization algorithm for bound-constrained problems. The algorithm, based on a space-partitioning scheme, performs both gl...
A conditioning graph is a form of recursive factorization which minimizes the memory requirements and simplifies the implementation of inference in Bayesian networks. The time com...
A graph-based prior is proposed for parametric semi-supervised classification. The prior utilizes both labelled and unlabelled data; it also integrates features from multiple view...
