This paper describes a new statistical parser which is based on probabilities of dependencies between head-words in the parse tree. Standard bigram probability estimation techniqu...
This paper deals with estimating small tail probabilities of the steady-state waiting time in a GI/GI/1 queue with heavy-tailed (subexponential) service times. The problem of esti...
We study two-layer belief networks of binary random variables in which the conditional probabilities Pr childjparents depend monotonically on weighted sums of the parents. In larg...

Recent research has made significant progress on the problem of bounding log partition functions for exponential family graphical models. Such bounds have associated dual paramete...
In real-life decision analysis, the probabilities and values of consequences are in general vague and imprecise. One way to model imprecise probabilities is to represent a probabi...
We present two methods for estimating replacement probabilities without using parallel corpora. The first method proposed exploits the possible translation probabilities latent in ...
The paper presents a method for uncertainty propagation in Bayesian networks in symbolic, as opposed to numeric, form. The algebraic structure of probabilities is characterized. Th...
We explore a generalization of Ellsberg's paradox (2color scenario) to the Vague-Vague (V-V) case, in which neither of the probabilities (urns) is specified precisely, but on...
Two approaches to logic programming with probabilities emerged over time: bayesian reasoning and probabilistic satisfiability (PSAT). The attractiveness of the former is in tying ...
