—In this paper, we propose a Bayesian-inference based recommendation system for online social networks. In our system, users share their content ratings with friends. The rating ...
Queueing delays experienced by packets buffered at a node are among the most difficult to predict when considering the performance of a flow in a network. The arrivals of packets a...
Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA) has become a popular topic model for image clustering. However, the traditional PLSA method considers each image (document) independen...
The problem is sequence prediction in the following setting. A sequence x1, . . . , xn, . . . of discrete-valued observations is generated according to some unknown probabilistic ...
While sophisticated neural networks and graphical models have been developed for predicting conditional probabilities in a non-stationary environment, major improvements in the tr...
I’ll describe a range of systems for nonmonotonic conditionals that behave like conditional probabilities above a threshold. The rules that govern each system are probabilistical...
Nilsson's Probabilistic Logic is a set theoretic mechanism for reasoning with uncertainty. We propose a new way of looking at the probability constraints enforced by the fram...
In this paper wesuggest a wayof using the rules of System P to propagate lower bounds on conditional probabilities. Usinga knowledgebase of default rules whichart, consideredto be...
A Bayesian belief network is a model of a joint distribution over a finite set of variables, with a DAG structure representing immediate dependencies among the variables. For each...
Within the task of collaborative filtering two challenges for computing conditional probabilities exist. First, the amount of training data available is typically sparse with resp...
