Optimizing exact genetic linkage computations
Genetic linkage analysis is a challenging application which requires Bayesian networks consisting of thousands of vertices. Consequently, computing the likelihood of data, which i...

Mean Field Variational Approximation for Continuous-Time Bayesian Networks
Continuous-time Bayesian networks is a natural structured representation language for multicomponent stochastic processes that evolve continuously over time. Despite the compact r...

Laplace maximum margin Markov networks
We propose Laplace max-margin Markov networks (LapM3 N), and a general class of Bayesian M3 N (BM3 N) of which the LapM3 N is a special case with sparse structural bias, for robus...
