Opening up large amounts of loosely structured information for easy access and use is a complex problem. This paper describes two systems that address different aspects of the pro...
The complexity of a reasoning task over a graphical model is tied to the induced width of the underlying graph. It is well-known that the conditioning (assigning values) on a subs...
Abstract Given a collection of individual preferences defined on a same finite set of candidates, we consider the problem of aggregating them into a collective preference minimizin...
There are two main ways of defining secrecy of cryptographic protocols. The first version checks if the adversary can learn the value of a secret parameter. In the second version,...
