Sampling-Based Estimation of the Number of Distinct Values of an Attribute
We provide several new sampling-based estimators of the number of distinct values of an attribute in a relation. We compare these new estimators to estimators from the database an...

Noise-Contrastive Estimation of Unnormalized Statistical Models, with Applications to Natural Image Statistics
We consider the task of estimating, from observed data, a probabilistic model that is parameterized by a finite number of parameters. In particular, we are considering the situat...

Learning causal networks from systems biology time course data: an effective model selection procedure for the vector autoregres
Background: Causal networks based on the vector autoregressive (VAR) process are a promising statistical tool for modeling regulatory interactions in a cell. However, learning the...
