Robust Face Matching Under Large Occlusions
Outliers due to occlusions and contrast and offset signal deviations notably hinder recognition and retrieval of facial images. We propose a new maximum likelihood matching score ...

A Sample Approximation Approach for Optimization with Probabilistic Constraints
We study approximations of optimization problems with probabilistic constraints in which the original distribution of the underlying random vector is replaced with an empirical dis...

On complexity of multistage stochastic programs
In this paper we derive estimates of the sample sizes required to solve a multistage stochastic programming problem with a given accuracy by the (conditional sampling) sample aver...

Approximate Decomposition: A Method for Bounding and Estimating Probabilistic and Deterministic Queries
In this paper, we introduce a method for approximating the solution to inference and optimization tasks in uncertain and deterministic reasoning. Such tasks are in general intract...

On the Concentration of Expectation and Approximate Inference in Layered Networks
We present an analysis of concentration-of-expectation phenomena in layered Bayesian networks that use generalized linear models as the local conditional probabilities. This frame...
