The document as an ergodic markov chain
In recent years, statistical language models are being proposed as alternative to the vector space model. Viewing documents as language samples introduces the issue of defining a...

Integrating Logical Reasoning and Probabilistic Chain Graphs
Probabilistic logics have attracted a great deal of attention during the past few years. While logical languages have taken a central position in research on knowledge representati...

Bayesian Inference for PCFGs via Markov Chain Monte Carlo
This paper presents two Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms for Bayesian inference of probabilistic context free grammars (PCFGs) from terminal strings, providing an altern...

A probabilistic approach to inference with limited information in sensor networks
We present a methodology for a sensor network to answer queries with limited and stochastic information using probabilistic techniques. This capability is useful in that it allows...

Approximate inference for first-order probabilistic languages
A new, general approach is described for approximate inference in first-order probabilistic languages, using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques in the space of concrete po...
