We study the problem of projecting a distribution onto (or finding a maximum likelihood distribution among) Markov networks of bounded tree-width. By casting it as the combinatori...

We provide a polyhedral description of the conditions for the existence of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) for a hierarchical log-linear model. The MLE exists if and only if...
