On Combining Graph-based Variance Reduction schemes
In this paper, we consider two variance reduction schemes that exploit the structure of the primal graph of the graphical model: Rao-Blackwellised w-cutset sampling and AND/OR sam...

Can you beat treewidth?
: It is well-known that constraint satisfaction problems (CSP) over an unbounded domain can be solved in time nO(k) if the treewidth of the primal graph of the instance is at most ...

Tractable database design through bounded treewidth
Given that most elementary problems in database design are NP-hard, the currently used database design algorithms produce suboptimal results. For example, the current 3NF decompos...
