Importance Sampling for Continuous Time Bayesian Networks
A continuous time Bayesian network (CTBN) uses a structured representation to describe a dynamic system with a finite number of states which evolves in continuous time. Exact infe...

Solving the Problem of Cascading Errors: Approximate Bayesian Inference for Linguistic Annotation Pipelines
The end-to-end performance of natural language processing systems for compound tasks, such as question answering and textual entailment, is often hampered by use of a greedy 1-bes...

An Extension of the Differential Approach for Bayesian Network Inference to Dynamic Bayesian Networks
We extend the differential approach to inference in Bayesian networks (BNs) (Darwiche, 2000) to handle specific problems that arise in the context of dynamic Bayesian networks (D...

Bayesian Gaussian Process Classification with the EM-EP Algorithm
Gaussian process classifiers (GPCs) are Bayesian probabilistic kernel classifiers. In GPCs, the probability of belonging to a certain class at an input location is monotonically re...

Efficient Uncertainty Propagation for Reinforcement Learning with Limited Data
In a typical reinforcement learning (RL) setting details of the environment are not given explicitly but have to be estimated from observations. Most RL approaches only optimize th...
