Learning first-order probabilistic models with combining rules
Many real-world domains exhibit rich relational structure and stochasticity and motivate the development of models that combine predicate logic with probabilities. These models de...

Probabilistic Document Length Priors for Language Models
This paper addresses the issue of devising a new document prior for the language modeling (LM) approach for Information Retrieval. The prior is based on term statistics, derived in...

Language-Level Symmetry Reduction for Probabilistic Model Checking
—Symmetry reduction is a technique for combating state-space explosion in model checking. The generic representatives approach to symmetry reduction uses a language-level transla...

A Probabilistic Approach to Language Change
We present a probabilistic approach to language change in which word forms are represented by phoneme sequences that undergo stochastic edits along the branches of a phylogenetic ...

Probabilistic hyperspace analogue to language
Song and Bruza [6] introduce a framework for Information Retrieval(IR) based on Gardenfor’s three tiered cognitive model; Conceptual Spaces[4]. They instantiate a conceptual spa...
