Passive Reflectometry
Different materials reflect light in different ways, so reflectance is a useful surface descriptor. Existing systems for measuring reflectance are cumbersome, however, and although...

MetaPIGA v2.0: maximum likelihood large phylogeny estimation using the metapopulation genetic algorithm and other stochastic heu
Background: The development, in the last decade, of stochastic heuristics implemented in robust application softwares has made large phylogeny inference a key step in most compara...

Church: a language for generative models
Formal languages for probabilistic modeling enable re-use, modularity, and descriptive clarity, and can foster generic inference techniques. We introduce Church, a universal langu...

Optimal Causal Inference
We consider an information-theoretic objective function for statistical modeling of time series that embodies a parametrized trade-off between the predictive power of a model and...
